"Timing has always been an issue for Lindsay Lohan, who arrived 48 minutes late for her scheduled hearing at an L.A. courthouse March 18. The Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen actress had traveled from New York City to L.A. via private jet, which  was diverted from Van Nuys airport to LAX in an effort to minimize  Lindsay&amp;apos;s vehicular commute.\r\n\r\nUpon her tardy arrival, Lindsay and her attorney, Mike Heller,  were showered with glitter as photographers swarmed the courthouse.  (The star was similarly doused with sparkles when she appeared in court  on July 20, 2010.) Clad in a white and pink ensemble, the 26-year-old  star was escorted to the restroom by six police officers midway through  her hearing.\r\n\r\nThe Mean Girls actress faced misdemeanor charges of reckless  driving, providing false information to a police officer and willfully  resisting, obstructing or delaying a police officer -- all while on  probation for shoplifting. The charges stem from a June 18, 2012 car  accident in which Lindsay&amp;apos;s Porsche rear-ended a truck while she was en  route to the Liz &amp;amp; Dick set. At the time of the accident, the actress claimed her assistant, Gavin Doyle, was behind the wheel.\r\nIn her latest legal sentencing, the troubled starlet accepted a plea  deal that requires her to receive psychological counseling for 18  months; she will be credited for two months already served. Lindsay is  also required to enter a 90-day residential treatment program. There is a  mandatory five days in jail sentence for reckless driving, but it will  be folded into her required rehab sentence. Lindsay must also complete  30 days of community labor, which may be done in New York.\r\n\r\nLindsay must also pay a $240 restitution fine and $30 criminal  conviction assessment fee, in addition to paying restitution to the  victim; that amount will be determined at her next court hearing on May  2. Per the terms of her plea deal, the Herbie: Fully Loaded star  was reminded that she cannot drive with any measurable amount of drugs  or alcohol in her system, or without a valid license and insurance.\r\nAs Heller discussed specifics of the plea, Lindsay repeatedly  whispered, &amp;quot;don&amp;apos;t say anything&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;shut up&amp;quot; to her legal counsel.  Lindsay also admitted to violating her probation in the jewelry heist  case, for which she was sentenced to 180 days in jail. That sentence was  stayed and she won&amp;apos;t end up behind bars if she continues to obey all  laws.\r\nLindsay does not have to be present for any future compliance  hearings, so long as she is in compliance. &amp;quot;I understand,&amp;quot; she told the  judge. When her legal team appears in court May 2, they must provide a  progress report on her counseling and proof of enrollment in a  residential treatment program. A hearing for her community labor will be  set after she leaves rehab.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;A suggestion: don&amp;apos;t drive. You&amp;apos;re in New York. You don&amp;apos;t need to  drive,&amp;quot; the judge told Lindsay. &amp;quot;This is it. You violate your probation  and we&amp;apos;re not going to be having discussions about putting you back on  probation in either case.&amp;quot;\r\nLindsay&amp;apos;s estranged father, Michael Lohan, also attended the court hearing with his own attorney, David Wohl.  &amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m not at all comfortable with the poor representation she is getting  right now,&amp;quot; Michael explained on Sunday, March 17. &amp;quot;My daughter&amp;apos;s  freedom and future are at stake, and I&amp;apos;m doing what any father would do  would in this dire situation.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
