Mischa Barton has been formally charged with driving under the influence, possession of 28.5 grams of marijuana (a misdemeanor) and being an unlicensed driver in connection with her arrest in West Hollywood on December 27, 2007.

The dumb bitch will be formally arraigned in Beverly Hills on February 28, but she is not required to make a court appearance at the time.

We know how this is going to play out. We’ve been through this before. The judge will make a big show of things and sentence her to like 10 million years. She’ll cry about it and say she’s ready to accept responsibility, but then she’ll serve exactly 7 seconds in the clink. She will waltz in, get her picture taken and then waltz out. She will then fade away until her next arrest, rehab visit, pregnancy or shotgun wedding. She’s so transparent.
