paris hilton could go to jail after violating her probation. She faces a maximum sentence of 90 days in prison if she is found guilty of driving while her license was suspended.

Paris pleaded no contest to alcohol-related reckless driving and was placed on 36 months probation in January. Police then stopped Paris on February 27 for driving without her headlights on. Officers discovered Paris to be driving with a suspended license.

The 26-year-old star insisted she was unaware her license was suspended and she was in violation of her probation.

Her spokesman Elliot Mintz says: "When Paris called me after she was pulled over, she asked if her license was suspended. If that's the case, she and I are unaware of it."

However, Los Angeles' City Attorney's Office says it has evidence proving Paris was aware of her suspension.

Spokesman Nick Velasquez said: "We have sufficient evidence to prove that Hilton had knowledge of the suspension, and yet continued to drive."

A hearing has been set for April 17, but Paris is not required to attend.
