LINDSAY LOHAN BAIL OUT

Lindsay Lohan

LINDSAY LOHAN was sentenced to 120 days behind bars for probation violation on Friday but bailed out of jail after only a few hours!

Lilo was also ordered to serve more than 400 hours of community service, including 300 hours at a women's center.

Lohan's lawyer, Shawn Holley, said she will appeal the judge’s ruling.

This is the troubled ex-Disney starlet’s 4th time in the big house.

The damning ruling came after Judge Sautner reduced Lohan's grand theft jewelry theft case to a misdemeanor after prosecutors plead their case against the Mean Girls star.

Sautner ruled prosecutors proved Lohan violated her probation on a 2007 drunken driving case.

The judge then refused to dismiss the theft case against Lohan.

"I see the intent here," Sautner said. "I see a level of brazenness with `Let me see what I can get away with here.'"

But Sautner also said she wanted to give the Lohan "an opportunity."

Lohan, 24, had entered a not guilty plea Friday.

However, she may be out in time for the new Gotti bio-pic she just signed to act in.
