Lindsay Lohan enters Betty Ford clinic

A prosecutor says he has received confirmation that Lindsay Lohan has checked in to a rehab facility and he will not be seeking to violate the actress' probation.

Chief Deputy City Attorney Terry White declined to disclose Lohan's location Friday.

A source close to the actress says she has checked in to the Betty Ford Center to meet her court-ordered rehab obligations.

The source was not authorized to speak publicly. Lohan has also has re-hired her longtime attorney, Shawn Holley, to handle her court case.

White says he has been in contact with Holley about Lohan's case.

Lohan is required to spend 90 days in rehab as part of a plea deal in a misdemeanor case filed after a June car accident. She pleaded no contest in March to reckless driving and lying to police who were investigating the June accident involving the actress along the Pacific Coast Highway.

The "Liz & Dick" star also was found in violation of her probation in a 2011 necklace theft and sentenced to 180 days behind bars, but her jail term can be avoided if she complies with the full terms of her sentence, which include community labor and 18 months of psychological therapy.
