"She has done far more than she has not done," lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley said. "You woke her up, you got her attention, she is juggling a lot of things...but in the end she got it right."

Prosecutor Danette Meyers countered that Lohan had been given enough chances, saying; "Not once, but seven times, she has not complied with this court's order...The court is clearly irrelevant to her."

Lohan found fame as an 11 year-old in the movie "The Parent Trap" and was considered one of Hollywood's most talented young actresses.

Her career peaked during the 2003 and 2004 movies "Freaky Friday" and "Mean Girls". But by age 20, Lohan was already attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and her hard-partying lifestyle was being chronicled by celebrity websites.

Her latest project is playing 1970s porn queen Linda Lovelace in a film that was due to start shooting this summer.
