Why Lindsay Could Escape Jail Time

Why Lindsay Could Escape Jail Time
Lindsay Lohan loves getting herself in trouble, but there's a pretty good chance she's going to avoid going to jail this time.
"This is far from a slam-dunk case," L.A. criminal defense attorney Steve Sitkoff tells People. He's convinced that all her lawyer Shawn Holley Chapman has to do is "convince one juror it was an innocent misunderstanding and she could walk."
Meanwhile TMZ thinks her camp should take the 'that necklace isn't worth that much' route. The necklace has a fair market value of about $800-900. Kamofie & Company was selling it at the inflated price of $2,500. Those trendy boutiques are always a ripe off.
Anyway, tons of jewelers agree that there's no way the necklace is worth more than $1,000 and in order to charge Linds with a felony, the necklace must have a fair market value of $950+.

Lohan sued over tanning bill

Lindsay Lohan's legal woes continue to mount - she has been hit with a lawsuit over an alleged unpaid tanning bill.
Tanning Vegas owner Lorit Simon claims she spray-tanned the troubled actress from 2007 to 2009, but has not yet been paid for her services.
Simon is demanding Lohan settle the $41,031 debt, as well as pay for her legal fees and interest, according to a lawsuit filed in Nevada last week and obtained by TMZ.com.
It's not the first time Simon has gone head-to-head with her former client - she sued the Mean Girls star in 2009, accusing her of stealing the formula for her tanning spray and selling it under her Sevin Nyne label.
News of Lohan's spray tan lawsuit comes at a bad time for the 24-year-old - she will be charged with one count of felony grand theft on suspicion of stealing a designer necklace from a Venice, California boutique on Wednesday.
