The sentence allows Robinson to finish this season before having to comply within five months.Robinson appeared in Municipal Court in this Seattle suburb that is home to the headquarters of his original NFL team, the Seahawks. It was the same court in which he pleaded guilty last year to drunken driving.At the time, Robinson was given a five-year sentence that was suspended on the condition he not drink or have any other law violations.The Seahawks then released their former first-round draft pick before the Minnesota Vikings signed him.But Robinson was charged with drunken driving again after he was stopped for speeding in August in Minnesota near the Vikings' training camp, prompting Wednesday's hearing. He was released by the Vikings after that incident, and picked up by Green Bay last month.Judge Robert McSeveney, a visiting judge from nearby Kent, sentenced Robinson to 90 days in jail, and said he could spend half of it on work-release."There are certainly numerous violations," McSeveney said. "Given Mr. Robinson's record ... 90 days in jail would be appropriate."Robinson must begin serving his sentence by March 1, when another court hearing is scheduled.In addition to the 90-day jail sentence, Robinson is still subject to a possible suspension from the NFL, ESPN.com's John Clayton reports. There has been no word yet from the league as to what sort of penalty, if any, it will hand out.Robinson, wearing a silver, pinstriped suit over a matching, mock collared shirt, was silent throughout the 10-minute hearing. His attorney, John Fox, admitted Robinson failed to report his change of address, his change of employment status and other requirements to the probation office."The real question is whether this case should be continued," McSeveney said. "Certainly you have other issues going on in other states.""I know Mr. Robinson intends to comply," Fox said."You are not in a position not to comply," McSeveney replied, addressing Robinson. "I would make it real clear to you that there is no waffle in that."Robinson declined comment after the hearing. Fox said "We won't be having any comment. Thank you," as he, Robinson and two others walked out of the court building.Fox did not return a telephone message left later by The Associated Press.Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Robinson was not at practice on Wednesday because of his legal situation, but hoped he would return Thursday.Speaking before Robinson's sentence was handed out, McCarthy said he expected Robinson to be available for Sunday's game against the St. Louis Rams but wasn't sure about his long-term future."I don't have any information as far as a decision that's to be made," McCarthy said. "We'll know more when he gets back."The 26-year-old Robinson's history with the league includes a four-game suspension in 2004 for a second violation of the NFL's substance-abuse policy while playing for Seattle. He may be subject to league suspense because of the August arrest in Minnesota.Given a second chance with the Vikings, Robinson was invited to the Pro Bowl last season for the first time as a kickoff returner. The Vikings then signed him in March to a three-year contract worth up to $12.7 million that included $5.5 million in guaranteed money.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.</div>http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2613544
