Back in September, Keyshia Cole was arrested for fighting a woman she found at her man Birdman’s apartment early in the morning. TMZ later reported that Keyshia would NOT be getting charged for any type of assault, and likely only receive some mandatory anger management classes. That being said, many were surprised when Keysh took to Twitter in December to reveal she was sentenced to 30 days in jail…however, she did say it was stemming from “something from 10 years ago.”
Apparently, Keyshia’s arrest had turned up a warrant from a 2002 DUI. Back then, she was placed on probation and was required to attend an alcohol ed course, but since the court records didn’t show proof of completion, the judge issued a bench warrant.

Kesyhia’s lawyer was in Santa Clarita court this morning, arguing that a 10-year-old bench warrant should not be enforced. She told the judge Keyshia completed the program and her former lawyer simply failed to inform the court.
Per TMZ:
Holley explained the alcohol ed program — which no longer has the old records — must have notified the DMV, because Keyshia has gotten 2 drivers licenses since then.
Holley persuaded the judge so the warrant was recalled and probation was terminated — yes, Keyshia was unwittingly on probation for the DUI for more than a dozen years.
So Keysh is now free and clear!
