Finally catching a break.
Amanda Bynes took a plea deal for her 2012 DUI charge on Monday, Feb. 24. Her attorney, Richard Hutton, entered her no contest plea to reckless driving. The charge got dismissed in exchange for the plea.
According to CNN, Bynes must serve three years probation, attend an alcohol education course and pay a fine after entering a no-contest plea to reckless driving.The DUI charge was filed against the 27 year-old actress in June 2012 when she allegedly sideswiped a police cruiser in West Hollywood in April that year.
However, the case was delayed while a doctor reported to the court on Bynes' mental condition. When the judge found her to be mentally competent to stand trial, the case resumed in November.
The What A Girl Wants actress had two hit-and-run cases, charged with driving on a suspended license, and was also accused in New York of throwing a glass bong out of her Manhattan apartment last May. However, those cases were eventually dropped.
After spending almost six months in a rehab facility, Bynes' recovery seems to be going very well.
