The 24-year-old actress, who has already been given a 120-day sentence for violating her probation stemming from a pair of 2007 drunken driving arrests, will enter the plea as early as next week and could legally disentangle herself by spending about three weeks behind bars, TMZ.com reported.�
Sources told TMZ that Lohan and her lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, hope that Judge Stephanie Sautner will not add any jail time for the theft charge in exchange for a no-contest plea.�
Nonviolent criminals rarely do more than about a tenth of their sentence in Los Angeles County jails. A sheriff's spokesman estimated that Lohan's 120- day sentence would likely be reduced to about three weeks jail time. Also, because the original felony theft charge was reduced to a misdemeanor, the whole case could be handed over to the City Attorney's Office, which typically handles misdemeanors.�

Lohan also has 480 hours of community service hanging over her head.�
The work is to be divided between the coroner's office in Boyle Heights and the Downtown Women's Center. The jail time and community service is supposed to be completed in a year.��

Lohan had been living in Venice since early this year, but she is reportedly moving to her native New York.
