Lindsay Lohan broke down in tears beside her attorney Shawn Chapman Holley as a judge sentenced the star to 90 days in jail.
'We're angry. We're disappointed in the system,' star's mom says of sentence
LOS ANGELES — Lindsay Lohan is "scared to death" about going to jail, and is planning to appeal her 90-day sentence with a new lawyer, her mother Dina Lohan said in an interview.
"I think it's time we get another attorney just to see it from another light and do damage control," she added, saying her daughter hoped to file an appeal.
The "Mean Girls" actress is due to start her three-month jail term on July 20. She was ordered to jail by a Beverly Hills judge who ruled on Tuesday that Lohan, 24, had violated her probation for a 2007 drunk driving and cocaine possession case because she had failed to attend weekly alcohol education classes imposed by the court.
Lohan's lawyer abruptly quit on Thursday, hours after issuing a statement calling the sentence "harsh and unfair" but stating that Lohan was prepared to serve her jail time and comply with the court's orders."
Lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley did not give a reason for leaving, but Dina Lohan suggested Lohan's team was unhappy with Holley's handling of the case.
"I feel like Shawn, Lindsay's attorney, should have stood up (in court on Tuesday) and said, 'Listen, I didn't know you were going to have witnesses.' We would have had ten witnesses. We didn't get a shot. We didn't get a shot at fairness," Dina Lohan said.(today.msnbc.msn.com)
