Mischa Barton

Television star Mischa Barton has been sentenced to three years of unsupervised probation after pleading no contest to drunken driving. The former star of "The O.C." was charged with DUI, possession of marijuana and driving without a license in February, following an arrest in West Hollywood California in December.Barton accepted a plea deal by admitting the DUI offense in return for prosecutors dropping the marijuana charge and reducing the driving without a license charge to an infraction. Today a Beverly Hills, California, judge sentenced the 22-year-old to three years of unsupervised probation and ruled she must complete a three-month alcohol-education class and pay a fine of approximately $2,000.
