Elliot Mintz made this statement regarding Paris' sentencing:
"THE DAY AFTER THE HEARING. I SENT PARIS AN E-MAIL EXPRESSING MY SADNESS OVER THE RULING OF THE JUDGE AND THE IRRATIONAL SENTENCE HE IMPOSED.
IN THAT E-MAIL I ALSO OFFERED MY SINCEREST APOLOGY FOR ANY MISUNDERSTANDING SHE RECEIVED FROM ME REGARDING THE TERMS OF HER PROBATION. TO THE EXTENT THAT I HAVE MISCOMMUNICATED INFORMATION I RECEIVED FROM HER ATTORNEYS......I AM DEEPLY AND PROFOUNDLY SORRY. I TOLD HER THAT I ASSUME PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY PART IN THIS MATTER.
I BELIEVE WHEN PARIS STATED IN COURT THAT SHE BELIEVED IT WAS O.K. FOR HER TO DRIVE UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES SHE WAS BEING ABSOLUTELY TRUTHFUL.
DUE TO THIS MISUNDERSTANDING, I AM NO LONGER REPRESENTING PARIS.
FOR THE RECORD, I HAVE NOTHING BUT LOVE AND RESPECT FOR PARIS AND HER FAMILY. PARIS IS A WONDERFUL PERSON AND DOES NOT DESERVE THE PUNISHMENT THAT WAS HANDED DOWN BY THE COURT. I ONLY WISH HER MY BEST."
