Kim Delaney's husband is facing fresh legal trouble following an alleged domestic violence incident in Michigan, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
According to court records obtained by Radar, James Edward Morgan is named as the defendant in a new criminal case filed October 9, 2026, in Michigan's 46th District Court, following an alleged incident one day earlier. The case comes amid renewed attention surrounding the NYPD Blue actress's turbulent marriage, after reports emerged that she had called off her divorce and reconciled with Morgan.
Fresh Criminal Case Filed in Michigan
Delaney's husband faces a new criminal case stemming from an October 8 incident.
Court records show Morgan, 56, is facing a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct–disturbing the peace stemming from an October 8 incident in Southfield, Michigan.
The records also reference domestic violence in an October 14 docket entry, although the precise nature of that allegation and whether it constitutes a separate charge require further confirmation.
Morgan was arraigned on October 9, the same day the criminal case was filed. Judge Sharon Clark Woodside set a $2,500 personal bond, according to the court's online records.
The available information does not establish whether the bond was posted.

The online docket does not provide a detailed account of what allegedly happened on October 8, identify the alleged victim, or establish whether Delaney was involved. No conviction or final disposition is listed in the new case.
The latest legal development comes after TMZ reported on October 15 that Delaney had moved to dismiss her divorce proceedings. According to the outlet, Delaney's attorney informed a judge that the couple had reconciled, marking another dramatic turn in their relationship.

The couple also made headlines in March 2025 when both were arrested following an alleged domestic dispute at their California residence.
