Los Angeles City Attorney's office has announced that Rodriguez has not revealed the proof of completion of her 30 days of community service; therefore she might land up in jail.
"She hasn't shown proof of completion of her 30 days of community service. She could face jail time, but it's up to the judge," the People quoted City Attorney spokesman Frank Mateljan, as saying.
The City Attorney's office alleges that the actress submitted a false document showing that she completed one day of service on Sept. 25, as per the court filings.
However, the 29-year-old actress later stated that she was in New York on that date.
On Sept 28, 2007, Rodriguez arrived at the court along with her attorney, Richard Beada for a hearing in the matter.
Beada successfully asked the judge to postpone Friday's hearing to Oct. 12. But first, the actress received a scolding by Superior Court Judge Daviann L. Mitchell, who ordered the actress to complete two days of road cleanup duty for the California Department of Transportation.
"I'm not impressed with your completion schedule. I don't care if you have to camp there, complete (it) without exception," Judge Mitchell said.
But outside the court, Beada dismissed judge's argument saying that the actress has completed her 30 days of community service.
"We believe this is all due to a clerical error. My client did complete the full 30 days," Beada said.
