Lindsay Lohan is undoubtedly more famous these days for her multiple arrests than she is for her acting.

After the Liz & Dick star's latest bust early Thursday for allegedly assaulting a woman at a New York nightclub, E! News has assembled a handy scorecard of all of Lindsay's run-ins with the law so you don't have to.

May 26, 2007: Lohan is collared on a charge of driving under the influence and possession of cocaine after losing control of her Mercedes in a booze-fueled car wreck in Beverly Hills.

Nov. 15, 2007: LiLo spends a whopping 84 minutes in the Lynwood, Calif. jail before being released due to overcrowding.

March 13-16, 2009: A Beverly Hills judge issues a $50,000 warrant related to Lohan's May 2007 DUI arrest only to rescind it three days later after her attorney Shawn Holley shows that the starlet has been complying with the terms of her probation.

Oct. 16, 2009: The judge in her DUI case extends Lohan's probation by an additional 12 months so she can complete her court-ordered alcohol education program, which she had up until that point failed to do given her ever-busy career.

May 20, 2010: Her probation is revoked and a bench warrant is issued for the thespian's arrest after Lohan skips a court date to attend the Cannes film festival and then claims she couldn't get back because, in the words of her attorney, "her passport was stolen." The judge sets her bail at $100,000, which she later pays to win her freedom.

May 24, 2010: The trouble-prone party girl is fitted with an alcohol-monitoring SCRAM device on her ankle and ordered to refrain from drugs and booze and undergo weekly random drug testing as part of the conditions of her bail.

June 8, 2010: A judge rules Lindsay's in violation of her probation, hikes her bail to $200,000 and issues a new bench warrant for her arrest  two days after Lindsay's SCRAM ankle brace suspiciously lights up at an MTV Movie Awards afterparty. The warrant is subsequently recalled after a bail bondsman covers Lohan's bond.

July 6, 2010: Lohan is sentenced to 90 days in jail for failing to attend her court-ordered weekly alcohol education classes.

July 20, 2010: Linds surrenders and ultimately ends up serving two weeks due to prison overcrowding and the non-violent nature of her crime.

Apr. 22, 2011: Lohan is given 120 days in county jail and 480 hours of community service after a judge finds she violated her probation on the 2007 DUI. At the same time, her necklace-jacking charge is knocked down to a misdemeanor.
