Lindsay Lohan's Lawyer: "Lindsay Has Changed For The Better"
Posted on Wed Aug 25, 2010 09:45 AM PDT
Shawn Chapman Holley gave a brief statement after court where she said her client has changed for the better during the last month-and-a-half she spent first in jail, then rehab.
"Lindsay has changed. She’s healthy, clear-headed, positive and looking forward to beginning anew," Holley said outside of the Beverly Hills courtroom. "Anyone would have changed after going through what she’s gone through in the past month-and-a-half."
Holley also says that the judge has dismissed two of the under the influence counts on Lindsay's record because she "complied with all of her alcohol classes."
As part of her ongoing treatment, Lindsay will be required to continue her treatment on an outpatient basis. "Lindsay will be in a lot of therapy," says Holley, "Psychotherapy as well as a 12 step program, but will also allow her time to work which is positive."
She also revealed that UCLA doctors "started fresh" with Lindsay, conducted their own analysis and found that there was no need to keep her at the facility any longer than her 22 days. Holley says Lindsay complied with everything that was asked of her and basically was a model patient!
Lilo's lawyer went on to say that "She’s really looking forward to beginning anew and having a productive life and schedule. Hopefully you will all support her now as she moves forward, just as you did during her dark times."
Although Lindsay is very much looking forward to getting back to work, Shawn Chapman Holley says Lindsay does NOT plan on attending the Machete premiere tonight because she doesn't want to make her first post-jail appearance something quite so "splashy."
But Lindsay does love a party, and what a great way to return to the scene!
Do you think she'll be there tonight?
