Charlie Sheen

LAP99092701 - 27 SEPTEMBER 1999 - LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, USA: A judge in Malibu, CA said September 27 he "could not be more pleased" with the progress actor Charlie Sheen, pictured in 1994, is making in his battle against drug abuse, but the judge denied Sheen's motion to terminate his probation early. Sheen drew a lengthy probation for violating an earlier probation in a 1996 case in which he was charged with assaulting his gilfriend. rg/jr/Jim Ruymen UPI
