Actor and comedian Tiffany Haddish pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor alcohol-related driving charge in Georgia, avoiding additional jail time. The charge stemmed from her January 2022 arrest after she was found asleep at the wheel at a traffic light. Haddish received 12 months’ probation, was ordered to avoid drugs and alcohol, and must complete a substance abuse evaluation. Other charges were dropped, and she received credit for time served. Her lawyers' attempt to dismiss the case due to speedy trial concerns was rejected, as the judge noted Haddish had requested some delays. Haddish also faced a similar arrest in November 2023 in Beverly Hills, where she later pleaded no contest to a vehicle code violation, with DUI charges dropped.
