Lindsay Lohan officially free of probation

Actress Lindsay Lohan's summer celebrations have started early after a judge approved her community service hours and ended her probation related to a 2012 reckless driving case on Thursday (28May15).

The Mean Girls star raced against time to complete 125 hours of volunteer work after her previously logged hours in London were rejected by a judge, who questioned their legitimacy.

Lohan worked eight hours a day for two weeks at the Duffield Children's Center in Brooklyn, New York to fulfill her required service, and on Wednesday, Santa Monica Chief Deputy City Attorney Terry White confirmed she had completed her obligations.

On Thursday, Lohan's lawyer, Shawn Holley, appeared in court in California, where a judge signed off on the hours and officially lifted her probation.
