Tatum O'Neal has pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct in connection with her arrest last month for alleged drug possession.

Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Elisa Koenderman ordered O'Neal to spend two half-day sessions in a drug treatment program and pay a $95 fee. If she complies, she will get a conditional discharge and the conviction will be erased if she stays out of trouble for one year. 

The Oscar-winning actress, daughter of actor Ryan O'Neal, was arrested June 1 on suspicion of buying cocaine on a Manhattan street. She was the youngest person ever to win an Academy Award for 'Paper Moon' in 1973 at age 10. 

O'Neal has struggled with drugs in the past but said in an interview shortly after her arrest that she had recently been sober. "Just when I was about to change that and wreck my life, the cops came and saved me."
