Gibson's Been Following DUI Probation Terms
Posted: 12:52 pm PDT August 23, 2007
MALIBU -- Actor Mel Gibson has been following the rules of his probation for a DUI arrest during which he made derogatory remarks about Jews and women, his lawyer told a judge Thursday. The actor was not required to attend the hearing. His lawyer, Blair Berk, gave Judge Lawrence Mira documents showing the 51-year-old Gibson was meeting the terms of his probation. Gibson's publicist, Alan Nierob, had no comment. Gibson has been required to check in with the court periodically since his July 28, 2006, misdemeanor drunken driving arrest on Pacific Coast Highway. Gibson pleaded no contest to the charge on Aug. 17, 2006, and was given three years probation, ordered to pay $1,400 in fines and attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. His attendance at AA meetings is now voluntary. Gibson repeatedly apologized for making the derogatory comments. His next court appearance was set for Feb. 15.
