Lindsay Lohan Posts Bail…What’s Next?

Just a few hours after Judge Marsha Revel issued a bench warrant and set bail at $100,000, for Lindsay Lohan, her business manager, Lou Taylor, has posted $10,000, the standard 10% with David Perez Bail Bonds and the warrant was recalled. Had Lohan not recalled the bench warrant out for her arrest, she could have been detained and/or arrested upon landing and coming through customs. "If Los Angeles County says, 'Yes, the warrant is active, and yes, we would like to extradite,' then we would turn over a subject to the local police department who would coordinate with the agency that issued the warrant," according to Customs and Border Protection spokesman John Saleh. Lindsay will still have to appear in court on Monday for Judge Revel to set the formal terms of her release. A formal probation violation hearing date will also need to be set for Judge Revel will determine whether or not, Lindsay Lohan was in violation of her probation. The district attorney's office has already said they will seek the maximum sentence for Lohan, 180 days behind bars.
