The former 'Lost' star reported to California's Lynwood County Jail at 4.33pm to start her sentence for violating the terms of her probation after she was found guilty of DUI (driving under theinfluence of alcohol).
Superior Court Judge Daviann L. Mitchell ruled the 29-year-old actress could not be given early release, but due to prison over-crowding the county sheriff may have no choice but to let her out before she has served her full sentence.
State law also permits that Rodriguez be released early for good behaviour.
The 29-year-old actress was sentenced on October 10 after she "admitted violating her probation by failing to provide proof of completion of her community service and for consuming alcohol three times while wearing an alcohol-monitoring device."
Rodriguez - who played Ana-Lucia in hit TV show 'Lost' - was serving an extended probation term for several driving offences.
In May 2006, she served just four hours and 20 minutes of a two-month sentence at Lynwood for violating probation terms of a DUI arrest in Hawaii in December 2005.
She was released early due to prison over-crowding, and served just over two days in a Honolulu jail for the same offence.
In June 2004, Rodriguez was placed on three years probation after pleading no contest to DUI and driving with a suspended licence following two separate incidents in Hollywood dating back to 2003.
