House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) husband has pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of alcohol in May.
On Tuesday, Paul Pelosi was sentenced by Judge Joseph Solga to five days in jail.
However, CNN notes that he will “receive credit for two days already served and two days for conduct credit.”
And one of the five days will be served through a court work program.
CNN also reported, “Pelosi will be on probation for three years and pay upwards of $1,700 in fines.”
“The court also ordered an interlock ignition device to be installed on his vehicle for one year, restitution to remain in the court’s jurisdiction and his attendance in a three-month drinking-driver class,” it added.
Paul Pelosi, 82, did not appear in the courtroom, instead, Amanda Bevins, his lawyer, appeared on his behalf — which is allowed under California law.
He previously pleaded not guilty after he was arrested on May 28 following a collision with another vehicle in Napa, California.
The collision occurred as he was trying to cross SR-29 and was hit by a northbound vehicle. A criminal complaint stated that the two vehicles “sustained major collision damage.”
