RICHIE ON HER WAY TO JAIL?

LATEST: NICOLE RICHIE could be on her way to jail if she's found guilty of driving under the influence following her arrest on Monday (11DEC06) - because she already has a previous DUI conviction.

The socialite admitted to highway patrol officers she had taken Vicodin and smoked marijuana before driving the wrong way on a Burbank, California freeway, and that confession could land her behind bars.

News website TMZ.com has uncovered four-year-old court documents which reveal THE SIMPLE LIFE star pleaded no contest to driving under the influence in 2002.

Under California law, if Richie is convicted of DUI as a result of her latest arrest, a judge must impose a mandatory jail sentence of five consecutive days.

Richie was given three years probation for her 2002 DUI conviction and had her license suspended for one year. Six months later, Richie was arrested for possession of heroin and for driving with a suspended license.
