Alexander's court ordered time at the morgue, along with an alcohol education program, stems from a DUI arrest in 2006.
According to the LA County Sheriff's Department, the 27-year-old was arrested on December 3. Alexander is scheduled for release on December 9.
Jason was married to Britney for only 55 hours following an impromptu Las Vegas wedding in 2005.
