Mark Fuhrman's perjury probation ends

LOS ANGELES (CNN) -- Former Los Angeles police detective Mark Fuhrman is no longer on probation for lying under oath during the O.J. Simpson trial, his attorney tells CNN.

Fuhrman, who now lives in Idaho, pleaded no contest to felony perjury after testifying during the O.J. Simpson trial that he had not used a racial slur in the previous 10 years. He was placed on three years probation.

Fuhrman attorney Darryl Mounger said Friday he filed a motion in Los Angeles Superior Court to terminate the probation because his client posed no threat and "would probably never get into trouble again." Idaho probation officials supported the request, Mounger said.

In addition to terminating the probation, Mounger said Fuhrman's original plea was changed from no contest to not guilty. After 18 months the felony complaint will be dropped, he said.
