Lindsay Lohan Not Allowed To Leave Betty Ford Center

Lindsay Lohan will NOT be allowed to leave the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, California, where she is currently serving a court-mandated 90-day sentence for a probation violation.
"It is understood by the Betty Ford Center that your client is to remain on the premises for the duration of her 90-day stay in treatment," reads a letter filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court by Lohan's newly re-hired attorney Shawn Holley. While this isn't the rehab facility previously agreed upon by the court, Judge James Dabney approved of it yesterday, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The letter notes that Lohan will be treated by a team of experts, including a physician, a nurse, a psychologist, a case manager, a spiritual care counselor, a family counselor, a dietician, a fitness trainer and a chemical dependency technician. Lilo will be kept on a strict schedule that starts around 6am and ending at 9pm, and patients are forbidden from having cell phones, and they are randomly drug tested.
Lohan was treated at Betty Ford in late 2010, but she never completed her stay. Lohan got into an altercation with a staffer who caught the actress trying to sneak out, and it later came out the Lohan "reeked" of alcohol at the time of the incident.
However, the facility noted that they cannot hold patients against their will nor can they prevent them from running away, so it's ultimately Lilo's decision to serve her full sentence ... or wind up behind bars.
