Ex-Jags receiver pleads no contest to 3 charges
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Former Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Jimmy Smith has pleaded no contest to three charges stemming from a drunken driving arrest.
Smith was placed on probation for 12 months and ordered to serve 50 hours of community service.
Smith entered the pleas Wednesday before Duval County Court Judge Brent Shore, who also imposed fines and court costs totaling about $1,100.
Shore told Smith he wanted him to spend his community service hours speaking to children and youth groups.
Smith pleaded no contest to DUI, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia stemming from an Aug. 28, 2008, arrest.
