According to the actor’s lawyer, Mel Gibson is meeting all terms of his three-year probation he was punished with after being arrested last year for DUI.

At a California hearing which the 51-year-old actor didn’t attend, Blair Berk handed in documents proving Gibson has attended Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and has paid all his fines. Starting now, the Hollywood actor and director is allowed to voluntarily attend the next AA meetings.

"The AA meetings are no longer under his probation's conditions," a spokeswoman with the district attorney's office said.

In July last year, the star got arrested for drunk driving and a month later pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor charges. His arrest report detailed an obscenity-laced tirade that included anti-Semitic slurs against Sheriff's Deputy James Mee, who is Jewish.

Gibson, who repeatedly apologized for making the comments, is required to be monitored by the courts to ensure he is adhering to the conditions of his three years' probation.

Judge Lawrence Mira, who presided over the hearing in Malibu, said in May that the actor was making good progress in his battle against alcoholism.

"I truly believe the rehabilitation in this case is effective. I don't want anything to interrupt that."
