LOHAN A NO-SHOW IN COURT/PROCEEDINGS DELAYED

Lindsay Lohan was a no-show in court yesterday, although she wound up catching a break. The actress was supposed to make her first appearance in connection with her November arrest for punching a woman in the face at a New  York nightclub. Lucky for Lindsay, prosecutors decided to delay the proceedings because they say “the investigation into this case is continuing.” No reason was given for Lindsay’s absence. Her lawyer insists she is "a victim of someone trying to capture their 15 minutes of fame."

DINA ACCUSES MICHAEL OF ABUSE AND RAPE

Dina Lohan says there’s a perfectly good reason her daughter Lindsay is so messed up. In an interview with the New York Daily News, Dina says her ex, Michael Lohan, physically assaulted her during their 22-year marriage and even raped her. “Lindsay saw her dad abuse me – that’s why she’s so screwed up,” said Dina, who came forward with the accusations just one day before Lindsay’s New York court date. Dina said a family photo, in which she is sporting a black eye, finally gave her the courage to go public with the abuse and it was Lindsay who convinced her to do so. “When Lindsay saw the photo she was furious,” said Dina. “She said, ‘Tell the world! Talk about it!’” Dina gave the Daily News police and medical reports to back her claims, but Michael vehemently denied assaulting or raping his ex, and says it’s Dina who is the bad influence on their daughter.  “She’s bringing this up now because she’s drinking and partying with Lindsay. And she keeps robbing Lindsay,” said Michael. “She is the devil.”
