A judge also denied a request to move her upcoming trial date to April - Lohan is due in court on March 18, where she'll face three charges stemming from a car accident last summer and could land in jail if convicted. Bonnie Franklin has died. The actress, who was most famous for her role on sitcom "One Day at a Time," died at her home in Los Angeles. She had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year.
