2007 and hasn't been any better for Paris Hilton than 2006, and if the law shows no mercy she and pal Nicole Richie may both end up serving time in the slammer for DUI and probation violations.

 The LA City Attorney's office announced yesterday that Paris violated her probation when she was pulled over on Feb.27 while racing down Sunset after dark with her head lights off.  When police pulled her over, it was discovered that she was driving on a suspended license, though she and her spokesman, Elliot Mintz claimed to have no knowledge of this:

"When Paris called me [after she was pulled over], she asked if her license was suspended," Mintz said. "If that's the case, she and I are unaware of it."

Well as they say, ignorance of the law is not an excuse.  Paris' license had been suspended as part of her punishment from a DUI arrest in September of 2006.  A hearing to determine her fate is set for April 17th.  I can't wait!

Paris' Simple Life star Nicole Richie is facing her own legal woes for similar issues.  In this case, her DUI charge from a December 2006 arrest violated her probation from a 2003 heroin possession. 

As the joke goes, maybe next year's Simple Life can be called The Simple Life: Cellmates!

Ooh, or better yet The Simple Life: It's Slammer Time.  Can't Touch This - and who would want to?  Gross.
