Lohan’s Attorney Quits


Lindsay Lohan is going to jail and there no two words about it. Her attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, is so unhappy about this that she has resigned from the case. The mean girls star was sentenced to a 90 day jail term a few days ago.

Holley released a statement soon after the Judge’s decision, stating that the verdict was harsh. She stated that both she and Lohan were extremely disappointed with the verdict. She also said that penalizing Lohan for being unable to balance her work commitments against the requirements of the courts was unfair as well.

However, according to Holley, Lohan may not have sit in jail for the entire 90 days. Due to overcrowding and budget cuts, Lohan may get out much earlier. Of course, her worries and commitments don’t end there. Once she gets out of jail, she has to check in to a rehab clinic and make regular visits to a probation officer. During these visits she will be tested for drugs and alcohol.

The jail sentence stems from Lohan’s 2007 drugged out drunken ride in her vehicle. She was then sentenced to three of probation which she violated by missing seven alcohol education classes. Holley was brought in to fix that problem in 2009 and to her credit she did. The probation was reinstated and she even managed to keep the star out of trouble for a while. But Lohan’s recent shenanigans did not go down well with Judge Marsha Revel, who decided enough was enough.
