Lohan negotiates probation

Lindsay is presently in the Betty Ford rehab centre in Los Angeles, following two spells in prison this summer; serving 13 days of a 90-day jail term in July before briefly being returned in September after failing drug tests, although she was released hours later on $300 000 bail.

A source explained to PerezHilton.com: "The longer Lindsay stays on probation, the increased chances that she will get in trouble because of problems staying compliant with the terms of her probation.

"The only person that can modify terms of Lindsay's probation, or terminate it early, is Judge Elden Fox."

Machete actress Lindsay could again face a return to prison as she is due in court on October 22 for a probation hearing after her failed drug tests, which could see her incarcerated again for violating the terms of her probation for a 2007 driving under the influence (DUI) conviction.

Friends of the star have said she isn't worried by this prospect, however, and is prepared to return to jail.

One friend said: "The fact is jail doesn't scare Lindsay. Before she did her time earlier this summer, she was petrified. Having spent time behind bars, it doesn't have that effect on her. Jail isn't a deterrent for her, period. "
