I think Jamie Lynn should have lost her job on the show! These girls on kids TV shows are a moral guide to the children that watch them, i feel it was highly irresponsible of her to get pregnant in the first place, she comes from a weathly family and they should have been doing more to educate her! 16 is far too young to be having a child and she cant been she as moral guideline for the young people that watch her, as little attention should be paid to her as possible and the father should be prosecuted as the law intended.

This year, Vanessa Hudgens of Disney's "High School Musical" got in trouble when some nude pictures of her surfaced on the Internet. Yet Disney chose to keep her on the show. Does that mean she didn't have a morals clause in her contract?
No. In fact, I'm sure that she did. But again, Disney has an interest in keeping her on that show, which it probably saw as outweighing the damage done by those pictures.
In terms of alleged criminal behavior, how binding are they? Without a conviction, are studios still able to use things like arrests as grounds for breach of contract?
In California there is a very strict rule that an employer cannot take adverse employment action based on an arrest that has not led to a conviction. So an arrest might run afoul of a morals clause, but you have a statutory provision that still protects them as it does any other employee.
