Actress Lindsay Lohan is doing well in complying with the terms of her probation, a judge said Tuesday, in the second positive report in a row for the perennially-troubled starlet. The 25-year-old, who made headlines by posing nude for the latest issue of Playboy, was complimented at her latest hearing before judge Stephanie Sautner near her home in the trendy Venice district west of Los Angeles.
“Just keep doing what you’re doing, and you appear to be doing it well,” said Sautner, adding that the “probation officer has written a favourable report, as has the volunteer center.” If Lohan sticks to the schedule, her probation will terminate at the end of March, Sautner said.
Lohan-the promising child star of hit Disney movies ‘The Parent Trap’ and ‘Freaky Friday’- is well known for her hard partying and has faced a series of legal tangles over the years. She was sentenced to 35 days of house detention last May as part of a plea bargain over the alleged theft of a $2,500 necklace from a jewellery shop near her home in Venice Beach.
In November Lohan spent five hours in prison after being sentenced to a 30-day stretch for breaching probation on previous offences including a 2007 drug and drunk driving misdemeanour. The star is featured in a nude photo-spread in the January/February issue of Playboy, for which she was reportedly paid nearly $1 million.
