Lindsay Lohan’s Too Sick To Fly But Not Shop?
By Jacob Wittich
LINDSAY LOHAN WAS SUPPOSED TO APPEAR IN COURT WEDNESDAY for a probation hearing, but her new lawyer Mark Heller reportedly told the Los Angeles County judge the troubled tart is too sick to fly out to Los Angeles.
Heller presented the judge with a note from a doctor stating that Lindsay has an upper respiratory infection and shouldn’t be flying for the safety of herself and the safety of the public, reports. His evidence? A New York Post article on the city’s influenza outbreak.
I don’t doubt that LiLo is sick…sick of all her court dates! But it doesn’t seem believable that she’s be too sick to appear in court.
Lohan was photographed by TMZ on a SoHo shopping spree on the same day that a doctor allegedly examined her. Unless Lohan was also prescribed with some retail therapy, we doubt she got a doctor’s note to miss court.
While Lohan bears no signs of running out of get-out-of-jail-free cards, if the judge decides that her excuse is invalid, a warrant could be issued for her arrest.
