]]> Lindsay Lohan is under investigation for possible involvement in a jewelry theft case. The incident stems from a gold necklace worth $2,500 that disappeared from a Venice jewelry store. The Los Angeles Police Department obtained a search warrant for Ms. Lohan’s home, but the necklace was returned to a police station before officers searched the Lohan residence. The necklace was returned by an associate of Ms. Lohan’s. According to one website the owner of the store has pictures and video of Ms. Lohan wearing the necklace. Also, there may have been an issue as to whether the owner of the jewelry loaned the piece to Ms. Lohan. Ms. Lohan is currently on probation for a drunk driving case. Riverside County officials are also investigating the actress for an alleged assault incident at the Betty Ford Center. An employee at the rehabilitation center stated that Lohan shoved her, but she is declining to press charges.

The new theft case brings Ms. Lohan’s legal problems up a notch because now she can be charged with a felony and faces a maximum of three years in prison for the offense. While it is very unlikely that she would serve anything close to the maximum time in prison, her past record of violating her probation and generally failing to comply with the terms of her probation could subject her to a much harsher sentence then a first time theft offender. See Penal Code Sections 459, 487(a), 240-242.

]]> A Los Angeles County Judge issued an arrest warrant for Lindsay Lohan for her failure to appear in court on May 20th. Lohan, who was scheduled to appear for her probation hearing for a 2007 driving under the Influence conviction, failed to show up. Instead she was in Cannes, France, enjoying the famous yearly film festival. Lohan claims her passport was stolen and therefore she was unable to get back to the U.S. But Beverly Hills Judge, Marsha Revel, had no sympathy for Lohan. Revel said Lohan should have skipped her France trip or made sure she was in the U.S. in time for her hearing. The Judge also commented that “actions speak louder than words” and that Lohan has “a history of not keeping scheduled appointments … I couldn’t have been more clear about the priority of this case and getting things done.” However, thanks to her representation Lohan was spared arrest when she landed in the U.S. Lohan’s $10,000 bond was posted and the arrest warrant was then recalled. See, Vehicle Code Sections 23152(a), (b), Warrants, Probation Violations.
