Paris answered an X17 photographer today when asked about her feelings regarding the verdict -- "I told the truth yesterday. I feel that I was treated unfairly and that the sentence is both cruel and unwarranted ..."

She met up with her parents for lunch, presumably to discuss her legal options and whether to proceed with an appeal against the 45-day jail sentence she received for driving on a suspended license.

Paris met with her parents Rick and Kathy at the Italian eatery Prego in Beverly Hills and then she and her mother went down the block to Francis Orr stationers so Paris could pick up some cards, gift bags and gift wrap. Needless to say, they were surrounded by paparazzi.
