Rather, the actress has pleaded no contest to the lesser charge of misdemeanor reckless driving.
A source close to the case told "The Insider" that "the DUI charge has been dismissed. Heather now has to pay a $700 fine, attend a 12-hour Driver's Education course and be on informal probation."
Locklear was well represented by attorney Blair Berk, who has a long-standing reputation for helping high-profile celebs out of such legal jams.
The Santa Barbara District Attorney's Office filed a misdemeanor charge against Locklear for driving under the influence of prescription medications in September 2008.
