Paris pleaded guilty to misdemeanor drug possession and obstructing an officer and ultimately that decision is keeping her out of jail, for now.

The heiress was arrested on Aug. 27 after cops found cocaine in her possession, which Paris has now pleaded guilty to, TMZ reports.
By pleading guilty, Paris was sentenced to pay $2,000 in fines, complete 200 hours of community service, complete an "intensive" substance abuse program and be on probation for one year.

Paris has also been given a one year suspended sentence by the judge. So, if she is arrested for anything other than a minor traffic violation she will spend one year behind bars.
