Lindsay Lohan Spends Only a Few Hours Behind Bars

Lindsay Lohan spent less than five hours in a Los Angeles County jail facility this past Sunday night and early Monday morning.

Lohan had checked into a detention facility in order to serve a 30-day sentence for violating her probation.

The actress was booked into suburban women's lockup the Century Regional Detention facility in Lynwood, California, at approximately 9 p.m. Sunday evening. However, she was reportedly released early Monday at around 1:40 a.m. due to jail overcrowding.

This is Lohan's fifth jail sentence since having been arrested twice for drunken driving in 2007.

Last week the judge ordered jail time for Lohan for violations of previous court orders, which primarily resulted from the actress's expulsion from probation related community service at a women's shelter.

Lohan was told to report to prison by Nov. 9, 2011. The judge additionally imposed the requirement that all of her community service take place at the county morgue, or she would be given an extra 270 days in jail.

She will be required to spend more than 400 hours at the morgue performing tasks that will purportedly include the mopping of floors, cleaning of bathrooms, and laundry duties.

Lohan is also prohibited from leaving the country without permission and must undergo psychotherapy sessions.
