Lindsay Out of Rehab, But Not Without Restrictions

Lindsay Out of Rehab, But Not Without Restrictions

Lindsay Lohan was released from inpatient drug rehab on Tuesday after serving only 22 days of her 90 sentence, but the actress still has plenty of restrictions to follow. Prior to her time in rehab, she served 13 of a 90 day jail sentence, and if she doesn't want to face another, longer term in lock-up she has a lot of requirements to meet in order to please the court. 

Lindsay Lohan was released from inpatient drug rehab on Tuesday after serving only 22 days of her 90 sentence, but the actress still has plenty of restrictions to follow. Prior to her time in rehab, she served 13 of a 90 day jail sentence, and if she doesn't want to face another, longer term in lock-up she has a lot of requirements to meet in order to please the court. 

At a hearing on Wednesday morning, according to TMZ, Judge Elden Fox said Lohan is required to not only continue submitting to random drug and alcohol tests two times a week, but also attend a 12-step program, participate in no less than four psychotherapy sessions every week, stay at home until further notice and go to behavior therapy sessions two times a week.

Should Lohan fail a drug and alcohol test, she will return to jail for 30 days --which could likely pan out to 90 minutes but that's anothe story. Her alleged failure to attend court-mandated alcohol education classes from two 2007 DUI cases was a probation violation that landed her back in court this year. However, an unnamed source close to the actress claims Lohan is adamant about keeping on the right track this time around. 

"Lindsay is going to do what she has to do," the source told Radar Online. "She wants all this behind her." 

Even though Lohan only completed a portion of the mandated time in rehab, which was ordered by a judge no longer on the case, Fox agreed to release her early after her doctors said her ADHD may have been a misdiagnosis, and her condition didn't justify the intense inpatient treatment, according to People magazine. Shawn Chapman Holley, Lohan's lawyer, said her client is "serious about her sobriety" but did not mention anything about the misdiagnosis.

Holley added: "She is looking forward to beginning anew and having a productive life and schedule. ... She has changed. She is healthy, clear-headed, positive and looking forward." She did not mention whether or not Lohan's home confinement will mean she can't begin work on Inferno, the Linda Lovelace biopic she's slated for.
