Paris Hilton Could Face Jail Time

City prosecutors said Thursday they will ask a judge to revoke Paris Hilton's probation in a reckless driving case, a move that could lead to a jail term.

The decision followed an investigation into whether the hotel heiress and reality star violated terms of her probation by driving last month with a suspended license.

"We're confident we have sufficient evidence to prove that her license was suspended and that she had knowledge of that suspension," said Nick Velasquez, a spokesman for the city attorney's office.

Hilton could face up to 90 days in jail if a judge finds she violated her probation, he said.

"The situation is being handled by Paris' attorneys. It would be inappropriate for us to say anything further at this time," Hilton's publicist, Elliot Mintz, said in a statement given to The ShowBuzz.
