Judge Tells LiLo She's Doing Well; Hell Gets a Little Chillier
Lindsay Lohan Gets "The Keys to the Jail." She'll Do Time, Gets Super Strict New Probation Sentence / Read the post here
In a refreshing change of pace, Lindsay Lohan has had a good day in court. Judge Stephanie Sautner, who in the past has had no qualms about delivering smackdowns to the errant starlet, told LiLo today: "Miss Lohan, you have actually done the work, and done it not only on time, but early," reports KLTA.
The actress, who recently posed for Playboy, was in court to check in with the judge on her probation. This past month, said Sautner, Lohan completed her required 12 days of community service and four therapy sessions, stemming from her guilty plea regarding stealing a necklace from a Venice shop and her subsequent probation violations.
Sautner added that Lohan is doing well, and that it would be nice if she could keep it that way.
