Comedian Tiffany Haddish avoided additional jail time on Tuesday after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor alcohol-related driving charge from her 2022 arrest in Peachtree City, Georgia. A court filing says someone called 911 early on January 14, 2022, to report a person asleep at the wheel of a Ford Explorer with their foot on the brake. Hindustan Times reports that other charges were dropped, and Haddish was placed on 12 months' probation, ordered to avoid drugs and alcohol, and complete a substance abuse evaluation. She was credited for time already served after her arrest. Haddish's lawyers had sought dismissal of the case, arguing a four-year delay violated her right to a speedy trial. Judge Jason Thompson rejected the motion, noting that Haddish and her attorneys had requested some delays themselves, including to attend a fashion show in Morocco and to leave a hearing early for a flight. Haddish also faced a DUI arrest in Beverly Hills in November 2023, which was resolved with a plea deal in February 2024.
