   LOS ANGELES – Lindsay Lohan has been cramming for her courtroom cameo Wednesday and hopes a favorable probation report will keep her out of jail. 
   
   Prosecutors, meanwhile, want the starlet's no-nonsense judge to toss her in the pokey for violating court orders in her complicated necklace theft and DUI case. 
   
   "We will be seeking jail time," Frank Mateljan, a spokesman for the Los Angeles City Attorney, told the Daily News. 
   
   The new probation report, which Judge Stephanie Sautner will review at the progress report hearing Wednesday morning, found the starlet in "substantial compliance" with the terms of her sentence, sources said. 
   
   Mateljan said his office reviewed the report but still considers her missteps egregious enough to yank her freedom. 
   
   "One of the terms was that (Lohan) serve her community service at the Downtown Women's Center, and she's subsequently been terminated," Mateljan said. "The judge said she needed to complete the program there, at that particular location." 
   
   Lohan, 25, got dumped by the center for habitually missing appointments, he confirmed. 
   
   Lohan's publicist wouldn't discuss the Wednesday hearing but said LiLo completed her court-ordered shoplifting course, switched her community service gig to the Red Cross and has been working with a psychologist, per the judge's orders. 
   
   "She performed community service at the Red Cross pretty much every day last week, and she's been actively going to therapy," her spokesman Steve Honig told the Daily News. "She's very focused on meeting her court-ordered obligations." 
   
   It's not clear how she handled her once-a-week therapy requirement while she traveled to New York and Europe for fashion shows and a modeling gig. 
   
   Sautner already lectured Lohan in July, telling the slacking starlet to get serious about her 480 hours of community service. 
   
   "I think the judge will give her another stern warning, but I wouldn't be surprised if she followed the strict letter of her ruling and put Lindsay in jail," celebrity defense lawyer Trent Copeland, who is not connected to the case, told the Daily News. 
   
   "It all depends on how Judge Sautner defines substantial, because Lindsay was not ordered to be sort of in compliance or kind of in compliance, she was ordered to be in full compliance," Copeland said. 
   
   Lohan spent two weeks in jail for violating probation in 2010 and a month under house arrest for swiping the necklace earlier this year. 
   
   Even if she's tossed in jail Wednesday, she'll most likely bail out immediately pending a probation violation hearing. 
   
   ndillon@nydailynews.com ||||| Los Angeles city prosecutors will ask a judge to send Lindsay Lohan back to jail after she violated the terms of her probation. 
   
   Lohan was kicked out of a program at the Downtown Women's Center, where she was instructed by a judge to do community service for a necklace theft conviction. 
   
   L.A. County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner on Wednesday will review Lohan's probation progress as part of a sentence stemming from probation in a 2007 drunk-driving conviction and a May misdemeanor theft conviction. The judge could be satisfied with Lohan's progress or set a hearing to decide whether her behavior amounts to a violation of her probation and requires she be jailed. 
   
   The actress rarely appeared at a women's shelter for 350 hours of required service and never shown up at the coroner's office, where she was supposed to do another 120 hours of community service. She is now seeking to complete the women's shelter hours at the American Red Cross, according to authorities. 
   
   "She was terminated from the women's center program for failing to show up. This was one of the terms of her probation. So we will seek jail time for her," said Frank Mateljan, a spokesman for the city attorney. 
   
   Lohan was ordered in May to have her 480 hours of community service completed by April 2012. 
   
   As of last week, Lohan had completed 21 of 360 hours required at the skid row shelter for women, according to law enforcement sources. Jane Robison, a district attorney's office spokeswoman, confirmed that because she failed to keep appointments at the women's center, she was transferred to the American Red Cross for those community service hours. 
   
   A spokesman for the actress acknowledged last week that she transferred to the Red Cross. 
   
   In a posting on her Twitter account last week, Lohan defended herself. "I am not to be made an example of anymore. I am working hard and fulfilling my obligations every single day, to the court as well as myself," she wrote. "If I travel, its for work and its been approved. As is anything I do when I leave the state. I'd appreciate it if people will just let me do what is asked of me, so that I can get my life back. Please ignore the reports which have no truth to them. Thank you."
target: – Prosecutors are out to put Lindsay Lohan back behind bars after she blew off her community service. Lohan has never shown up at an LA coroner's office, where she was supposed to work 120 hours, and rarely appeared at a women's shelter, where she was required to put in 360 hours. The time was mandated as part of Lohan's probation on a drunken driving and theft charge. "She was terminated from the women's center program for failing to show up. This was one of the terms of her probation. So we will seek jail time for her," a spokesman for the city attorney told the Los Angeles Times. As of last week, she has worked only 12 of the mandated 480 hours, according to a spokeswoman. Lohan arranged to switch her shelter service to the Red Cross and she performed community service there "pretty much every day last week," her publicist explained to the New York Daily News. Lohan tweeted just days ago: "I am working hard and fulfilling my obligations every single day, to the court as well as myself. If I travel, it's for work and it's been approved. I'd appreciate it if people will just let me do what is asked of me, so that I can get my life back." Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner today reviews Lohan's probation progress.
