"We believe Ms. Rodriguez violated the terms of her probation," spokesman Frank Mateljan was quoted as saying Thursday by People magazine. "She now potentially faces up to 18 months in county jail."

Rodriguez was arraigned in Honolulu Thursday on a charge of drunken driving, her second DUI arrest in two years. Her trial was set for March 30.

Rodriguez, 27, was sentenced in Los Angeles to 36 months of probation stemming from a DUI in November 2003 and a hit-and-run the previous July.

Mateljan said his office will charge Rodriguez with parole violation Jan. 24, but a hearing on the charge will not happen until after her Honolulu trial.

The actress' attorney Steve Barta, told People he had no comment.
