Linda was stopped by police in Malibu when she was caught speeding with a blood alcohol level of .084, just over the legal limit in California.

Here is the full TMZ.com article:

Linda Hogan’s “I only had one glass of champagne” excuse isn’t flying with officials … ’cause TMZ has learned she’s officially been charged with DUI stemming from her October arrest.

TMZ broke the story … Linda was popped for DUI in Malibu after cops say she was speeding around town with a blood alcohol level of .084 … just over the legal limit in CA.

At the time, a rep for Linda said Linda had only sucked down one glass of champagne at a jewelry event that night … on an empty stomach … but she also had taken antibiotics, which exacerbated the effects of the alcohol.

Now, the L.A. County District Attorney has charged Linda with 2 misdemeanor counts of DUI. She was also hit with one count of driving on a suspended license — also a misdemeanor.

All told, she could face up to 18 months in jail … though it’s unlikely she’ll spend any time behind bars since she has no prior DUI convictions.

The case is scheduled to go before the judge later this month.
