NEW YORK (AP) _ Tatum O'Neal has pleaded guilty to disorderly
conduct in connection with her June cocaine possession arrest in
lower Manhattan.

Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Elisa Koenderman has ordered the 44-year-old actress to spend two half-day sessions in a drug treatment program and pay a $95 surcharge.

If O'Neal has met those conditions when she returns to court on
September 4th, the case will be dismissed.

O'Neal won a best supporting actress Oscar at age 10 for 1973's
``Paper Moon,'' becoming the youngest person ever to win an Academy
Award.

O'Neal, the daughter of Ryan O'Neal, has publicly chronicled her struggles with drugs over the years.
