pleahab

The term used to describe the calculated legal maneuver of preemptively sending a misbehaving celebrity to rehab in an effort to avoid jail time.

“The famed celebrity defense attorney, representing the latest lifestyle victim of not-so-young-anymore Hollywood, has proactively checked his client into a nearby rehab facility hoping to sway the judge’s upcoming ruling away from time in jail—a tactic known in legal circles as a “pleahab” deal.”
