Court Warns Lindsay Lohan of Jailtime for Incomplete Community Service

Los Angeles court judge Mark Young said he did not approve of Lindsay Lohan's incomplete number of community service. In a hearing on Thursday for Lohan's reckless driving case, Young said that she will have to face the consequences if she fails to complete her service by May 28. 

Lohan, 28, is on probation for reckless driving and lying to police after crashing her Porsche on Pacific Coast Highway in Santa Monica while on her way to a film shoot in 2012. Of the 125 hours required by the court, Lohan only managed to complete less than 10 hours, which were reportedly spent in her apartment in London.

The 10 hours are still under speculation as it was done from her apartment, apparently allowed by a staff member of the London-based community service organization. She organized and posted photos on the organization's Facebook page. 

Earlier this year, she ran into trouble when her lawyer, Shawn Holley, lied to the court by presenting proof that she completed 240 hours of community service with a charity organization in London.

Because of this, Judge Young told the actress in February that she has to redo the hours she was improperly credited for, time she spent actually meeting with fans while she was in London for the production of David Mamet's "Speed-the-Plow."

When the judge gave Lohan until May 28 to complete her community service, Holley said it is improbable that Lohan will make the deadline because she is currently working with a charity for disabled adults and neglected children in London. To complete the remaining 115 hours of service, Lohan will have to move to New York and work with the children in Brooklyn.

The reckless driving case is Lohan's final criminal case in Los Angeles. Her first was in 2007 when she was arrested for driving under the influence and drug possession. On the same year, she was charged for stealing a necklace from a jewelry store. The actress has been sentenced to jail five times.
