Actor Charlie Sheen facing 30-day jail term
ASPEN, CO – Actor Charlie Sheen has reached an agreement with authorities in Colorado over domestic violence allegations involving his wife.

The agreement was confirmed by Chief Deputy District Attorney Arnold Mordkin. But a source close to the case revealed to Access Hollywood that the actor will plead guilty next week to a misdemeanor and will spend 30 days in the Pitkin County Jail.

Sheen had pleaded not guilty to menacing, criminal mischief and assault charges stemming from an argument with his wife, Brooke, on Christmas Day at an Aspen home where they were on vacation.

The most serious charge is menacing, a felony that carries a maximum three-year prison sentence.

Access Hollywood has also reported that the star's lawyers are trying to work out an agreement with the jail that will allow Sheen to smoke while there. A rep for the jail has indicated that the facility has had a no-smoking policy since 1992.

Sheen is scheduled to be in court Monday for a disposition hearing. His trial had been scheduled for July 21. (Source: Access Hollywood)
