Lindsay Lohan's Lawyer Offers Up Official Statement
July 8 2010, Published 7:57 a.m. ET
Since Lindsay Lohan's sentencing on Tuesday, where Judge Revel ordered the starlet head to jail for 90 days for violating her parole, she's Tweeted and cried and otherwise acted upset, but now her lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, is addressing the issue with an official statement to OK!.
The statement reads as follows:
“Ms. Lohan and I are extremely disappointed in the sentence handed down by Judge Revel. We believe that the penalty is far harsher than what others would have received under similar circumstances.
The reality is that Ms. Lohan, like most defendants, had to balance work commitments with court requirements. To be punished so severely for doing so, particularly in light of the fact that she substantially complied with each of her probationary conditions, is harsh and unfair. That said, Ms. Lohan is prepared to serve her jail time and to comply with the Court's orders,” said her attorney, who’s based in Santa Monica at firm Kinsella Weitzman Iser Kump & Aldisert.

“With respect to Ms. Lohan's nails, the fact is, the words could barely be seen by the naked eye. That a courtroom camera, purportedly there to accurately chronicle the proceedings, would use a telephoto lens to zoom in as it did to Ms. Lohan's fingernail is a commentary on the entire issue."
