  Results of recent searches for new physics in CP violation in charm decays
from the BABAR experiment are presented. These results include a measurement of
$D^0$ - $\bar{D}^0$ mixing and searches for CP violation in two-body $D^0$
decays, a search for CP violation in the charm decays $D^{\pm} \to K^0_S
K^{\pm}$ and $D^{\pm}_s \to K^0_S K^{\pm}$, $K^0_S \pi^{\pm}$, and a search for
direct CP violation in the singly-Cabibbo suppressed $D^{\pm} \to K^+ K^-
\pi^{\pm}$ decays. These studies are based on the final dataset collected by
BABAR at the PEP-II B factory at SLAC in the period 1999-2008. No evidence of
CP violation is found in these charm decays. The measured mixing parameter
$y_{CP} = [0.72 \pm 0.18 (stat) \pm 0.12 (syst)]$% excludes the no-mixing null
hypothesis with a significance of 3.3$\sigma$.
