According to sources, here's what to expect during the hearing: "Lindsay's probation will be revoked... immediately," one insider told us. "She will be formally arraigned on the single charge, and at that time she will be expected to enter a plea of either not guilty or guilty.

Another source tells us the troubled actress is expected to plead not guilty during the hearing and "feels that she is being maligned, and that she has a reasonable defense: She was loaned the necklace, plain and simple."

"Lindsay will be remanded into custody, again, and her bail bondsman will be there to get her out," one source said.

During the hearing, the judge could also order her to once again wear a SCRAM ankle bracelet, which detects alcohol consumption.

Per LAPD, they will not release a Lindsay Lohan mushot that will be taken after court today. It will be her fifth mug shot since July, 2007.

Adding to the seriouness of the situation is the fact that the felony grand theft charge constitutes a probation violation for the troubled starlet related to her prior DUI conviction.
