Heather Locklear is avoiding jail time after her sentencing stemming from two arrests in 2018.

The 57-year-old actress pled no contest to eight misdemeanors, including six involving battery on a police officer or EMT, in court on Friday (August 16).

According to TMZ, the judge sentenced her to 30 days in a residential mental health facility and three years of informal probation during which she must not possess weapons, non-prescribed medications or alcohol.

Heather must enroll in the 30-day treatment program by September 6th.

If she does not complete the program, she could face up to 120 days in jail.

Heather has been getting professional help laying low since her incidents last year, which also included hospitalization and a rehab stay.

Heather Locklear is focusing on her health in 2019.

At the end of December, the 57-year-old actress left a treatment facility to celebrate Christmas with her family in Los Angeles, a friend tells People.

Heather intended to return to rehab after the holidays, but is now “doing out-patient rehab at home” with the help of her family.

“She’s doing great. She has her parents staying with her, which has been great for everyone truly close to her,” the friend shares. “The fact that her parents are now staying with her is a good development and comforting.”

Back in June 2018, Heather was hospitalized for an overdose after allegedly getting arrested for punching a police officer who was called to her house over a family disturbance. She shortly entered rehab afterwards.

Heather‘s friend also revealed that she and on/off boyfriend Chris Heisser had split so she could focus on staying sober.

“By her making this move, it gives her a great reset button on what is most important and that is her sobriety,” the friend shared before adding that Chris “did not help her sustain her goals of sobriety.”

Heather Locklear has been hospitalized again just hours after being bailed out of jail.

The 56-year-old actress reportedly overdosed and paramedics were rushed to her home on Monday afternoon (June 25), according to TMZ.

The evening prior, police were called to Heather‘s home due to a disturbance and she allegedly punched the responding police officer who was trying to keep her separate from her family members.

She was taken to the hospital and then taken to jail. She was bailed out on Monday morning.

Heather‘s condition is reportedly stable and she is now getting the necessary treatment.

Heather Locklear has been arrested on two counts of misdemeanor battery against a police officer and emergency personnel, TMZ reports.

The 56-year-old actress was at home on Sunday night (June 24) when a member of her family reportedly called 911 for a disturbance. When police arrived, Heather allegedly punched the responding police officer who was trying to keep her separate from her family members.

Then, when the EMTs arrived, she apparently kicked one of them while they were helping to get her onto a gurney.

She was taken to the hospital, and then taken to jail. She’s being held there right now, according to the report, on $20,000 bail.

Reports of Heather‘s arrest come just days after she was reportedly hospitalized for a psychiatric evaluation.
