Sheen gets off

It's all about "time served" for Charlie Sheen, who was sentenced to 30 days in rehab yesterday. Since he spent time at Promises rehab center earlier this year, his sentence will be "administered and executed" in a matter of seconds.

Sources told TMZ yesterday that Sheen's getting credit for "time served," which means that he only has to check into rehab on August 23rd, and then leave. In addition, Sheen already did 36 hours of anger management, which was another element of the plea deal.

He added in a more canned statement that "I'm very grateful to the court and to the people of Pitkin County. I look forward to complying with the court's decision, getting on with my life and putting this behind me."

She'll get a portion of the property they shared, about $125,000/month for child support, $300,000 per year on the pre-nup (signed in 2008), and a $500,000 marriage signing bonus. Now all he has to do is avoid getting hitched again...
