DA Not Dropping Lindsay's Betty Ford Incident

The push to violate Lindsay Lohan's probation will continue -- the Riverside County DA wants further investigation into LiLo's alleged violent incident at Betty Ford ... TMZ has learned.

District Attorney Elect Paul Zellerbach met with his lead investigator and prosecutor this morning to talk about Lindsay's altercation with Betty Ford Center employee Dawn Holland -- who, by the way, doesn't want Linds prosecuted.

Upshot of the summit -- whatever the Palm Desert Police turned over wasn't enough. The DA's office says it needs more info to decide whether to charge Lindsay.

Lindsay Lohan Case Referred to District Attorney

TMZ has learned ... Lindsay Lohan's fate is now in the hands of the Riverside County District Attorney, who will decide whether to charge her in the Betty Ford brouhaha with the former staffer.

The Palm Desert Police Department has turned its investigation over to the D.A., who will decide whether to charge Lohan with battery.

The case would be an uphill battle, because alleged victim Dawn Holland says she will not cooperate and does not want Lindsay prosecuted.

No word on when the D.A. will make a decision.
