It may have taken a while, but Pete Doherty has finally run out of get-out-of-jail-free cards.
The arrest-prone, addiction-plagued rocker was sentenced to 14 weeks in jail during a London court hearing Tuesday, after being found in violation of his probation and for using unspecified drugs.
While the 29-year-old Babyshambles frontman has had more than his share of legal run-ins over the past few years, his current jailable offense stems from a probation order issued in last October for drug possession and driving illegally.
At the time, Doherty was given a suspended jail sentence and ordered to attend regular progress reports in court as well as enter into a rehab program. The sentence followed a May arrest for which he pleaded guilty to possession of crack cocaine, heroin, ketamine and cannabis.
According to the BBC, Kate Moss' infamous ex violated his probation by showing up late to one meeting with his probation officer and missing another altogether.
The British music magazine NME, meanwhile, cites a court spokesperson as claiming the violation was the result of "breach of time keeping, noncompliance of his order and using different drugs."
District Judge Davinder Lachar finally imposed a sentence of three and a half months, slightly less than the four-month stint he threatened Doherty with last fall.
Should all go well behind bars, however, the troubled musician will likely serve just one month in lockup.
A rep for the rocker has already vowed to appeal the ruling.
Doherty's pending incarceration puts the kibosh on what would have been his largest solo concert to date, scheduled to take place in London later this month.
"Peter was very much looking forward to the show and would like to offer his sincerest apologies to all his fans and to all those concerned," said his label, Parlaphone Records.
The gig has since been canceled, though tickets will be honored for the rescheduled, postsprung date.
