Judge Delays Sentence on Lindsay Lohan Theft Case


Lindsay Lohan’s theft case has become a lot more complicated than it was in the beginning. The judge handling the troubled starlet’s case has given her another two weeks to think things over and plead guilty to the case she’s being accused of. Lindsay is accused of stealing a $2,500 necklace in January just weeks after she went out of rehab.

Lindsay LohanLos Angeles Court Judge Keith Schwartz has given the starlet and her lawyers another two weeks to come up with a deal that will allow the accused to plead guilty since until Thursday, which was the first deadline set by the judge, they still haven’t come up with anything amicable to both parties. This time, the judge has set the extension until March 25 and if things don’t get better, they will be appearing in a preliminary hearing on the 22nd of April with a new judge taking over Schwartz’s position.

Judge Schwartz has repeatedly warned the actress that she will be put back to jail if she does not plead guilty and abide by the court’s decisions on her case.

Lindsay has yet to bounce back from her alcohol and drug problems which have sent her career down the drain. Not so long ago, she starred in hit films such as “Freaky Friday” and “Mean Girls.” Her career would have gone far if it weren’t for the troubles that she went through which are still pretty much the same until now.

If her case reaches the April preliminary hearing, a new judge will be in charge and will decide if there is enough evidence to bring Lohan to trial. Her violations against her 2007 probation for drunk driving and drug addiction will also be weighed and when there is proof that she did violate the rules, it would be the starlet’s fourth time to go to jail.
