Actress Lindsay Lohan was released from jail after serving 13 days of a 90-day sentence and was taken directly to a rehabilitation program.

Lohan, 24, whose promising career has staggered during the last two years of excessive partying, was jailed after violating her probation on a drunk-driving charge by missing a number of alcohol education classes.

Her sentence was reduced for good behavior, and was ordered to attend a rehabilitation program for the rest of her sentence period.

With the order of the court she is now under the jurisdiction of a treatment program.

Her sentence mandated that she begin an immediate 90 day period in rehab on her release from jail. Lohan will now head to a facility operated by the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) Hospital System in West Los Angeles.

She has been addicted to drugs and alcohol, and has already made three trips to rehab.

She was also found in possession of cocaine in 2007 for which she was arrested and spent 84 minutes in jail as part of her sentence.
