Paris entered a no contest plea for the DUI at a hearing in January and was sentenced to three years probation and fined, in addition to having her driving license temporarily suspended and being ordered into an alcohol education programme. However, she twice caught driving by police in February and March during her license suspension and didn t attend the education programme within the designated time frame.
She was 18 minutes late arriving at court this afternoon and gave a monotone testimony explaining her actions. Paris blamed her publicist Elliot Mintz, claiming Mintz told her that her driving license was still valid but a member of the Californian Highway Patrol later explained that they had personally told Paris about the suspension.
Judge Michael T Sauer dismissed Mintz s supportive testimony as completely worthless and told Paris that he didn t believe she was unaware of the state of her license since she had paperwork in her car related to the suspension.
Judge Sauer added that she would not be allowed work release or to negotiate any other former of punishment - such as an alternative jail or electronic monitoring - in lieu of the prison time.
The Los Angeles City Attorney s office initially called for the 45 day sentence and a spokesperson has said City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo is pleased with the ruling, saying: [he] believes today s ruling sends a clear message that in the City of Los Angeles, no one is above the law.
She's not above the law !
