The Los Angeles D.A. has stated that Lindsay Lohan will be charged with seven misdemeanors, but that the young actress will not be charged with a single felony. At the Beverly Hills Courthouse, the D.A. stated that the appearance of cocaine on Lohan’s person “were below the .05 grams required by office policy for felony filing,” and the troubled starlet avoided the dreaded felony charge. Additionally, at 1:30PM PST, there is a possibility that Lindsay’s legal team will be coordinating with the D.A’s office on a plea bargain. In Linday’s other DUI case, officials told TMZ that the drugs found on Lindsay “didn’t meet the threshold for filing” and that the way it was obtained by law enforcement officials has been called into question. From TMZ:

“Prosecutors in this county see a lot of kids in crisis. There are lots of kids struggling with addiction. The first sign of trouble usually involves a car. We’re not going to throw every one of them in prison. It doesn’t make sense.”

Well, that’s your Lindsay Lohan update for the day. Enjoy it. Nibble on it while you enjoy a cup of coffee.

    She’s probably in her rehab bedroom as we read, packing up her tanning lotions and getting ready to head back to LA.

    well, maybe there are so many kids in trouble in LA is BECAUSE they don’t put them in prison, at least for a little while…geez…

    Let me get this straight: I can engage in a high speed car chase, while in possession of narcotics and under the influence of alcohol during morning commute hours and not get any jail time? Honey, grab the keys, the Captain Morgan’s and the snow!

    JRo – don’t forget the Stolen CAR too! How the HELL did she get so lucky? Had this happened to me, I’d be serving a life sentence. Well, no, I’m in Texas so I’d be on Death Row…

    Well, that’s celebrity justice for you. I just hope that when she does this again (probably this weekend) they don’t let her off the hook.
