Lindsay Lohan: No Way Out of Jail Sentence

She’s scheduled to report to jail tomorrow (July 20) for a 90-day sentence behind bars (she’ll likely serve 22 days), and it doesn’t look like Lindsay Lohan will have any options for getting out of it.

LiLo’s lawyer Robert Shapiro agreed to represent her on the condition that she goes through with the jail time, especially considering that Judge Marsha Revel isn’t budging on the sentence.

However, Lindsay’s dad Michael Lohan is complaining that Shapiro hasn’t filed an appeal and wants his daughter to be given special treatment again.

Papa Lohan told press, "It's a conflict of interest if he's [Shapiro] putting her in his own sober house but not doing anything for her legally. An attorney is ethically responsible for defending their client to the best of their ability."

"But when you have an attorney like Robert Shapiro, who went through so much with his own son and knows the effects of prescription medications, it doesn't make sense that he did nothing to appeal her case and get her off the meds before she goes to jail.”

"Everyone knows that when you go into the jail or prison system, if you're on prescriptions written by a doctor, they give them to you in prison. It's a continuous cycle. Here you are punishing a girl because she has a drug problem, or at least for things that resulted from a drug problem and not doing anything to fix it. I'm very upset that Robert Shapiro did nothing to appeal the case."
