LOS ANGELES - Hours after Paris Hilton was sent home under
house arrest Thursday, the judge who put her in jail ordered her into court to
determine whether she should be put back behind bars. Hilton must report to
court at 9 a.m. Friday, Superior Court spokesman Allan Parachini told The
Associated Press.
"My understanding is she will be brought in in a sheriff's vehicle from her
home," Parachini said.
Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer issued his order after the city
attorney filed a petition late Thursday afternoon questioning if Sheriff Lee
Baca should be held in contempt of court for releasing Hilton Thursday morning.
The celebrity inmate was sent home from the L.A. County jail's Lynwood lockup
shortly after 2 a.m. for an unspecified medical condition in a stunning
reduction to her original 45-day sentence.
She was ordered to finish her 45-day sentence under house arrest, meaning she
could not leave her four-bedroom, three-bath home in the Hollywood Hills until
next month.
