Mischa Barton To ‘Accept Drunk-Driving Plea Deal’



Actress Mischa Barton will avoid jail by accepting a plea deal in her drink-driving case, according to new reports.
The former The O.c. star was charged with Dui, possession of marijuana and driving without a licence in February, following an arrest in West Hollywood in December.
But Barton will plead no contest to Dui at her arraignment in a Beverly Hills, California court on Thursday, according to People.com, and will, in return, serve a three-year unsupervised probation term. The 22-year-old will also be fined $1,700 and face a three-month alcohol-education class. The marijuana charge will be dropped and the driving without a licence charge will be reduced to an infraction, reports the website.
