Sam Underwood got some good news after his felony domestic battery arrest earlier his month. RadarOnline.com has confirmed that the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office has his case and is reviewing it as a possible misdemeanor instead of a felony.
Underwood was arrested on October 7 for felony domestic battery.
"The matter has been referred to the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office and is currently under review," a spokesperson for the L.A. City Attorney's Office told RadarOnline.com on Tuesday. "This matter was presented directly to the City Attorney's Office from LAPD for misdemeanor filing consideration."
Underwood was listed with brown hair, blue eyes, and weighing in at 200 pounds.
As this outlet reported, Underwood, 36, spent less than 9 hours in jail after being arrested for felony domestic battery on October 7 following an alleged physical altercation with an unknown female. RadarOnline.com has since exclusively confirmed that the actor's ex-wife, Valorie Curry, was not involved in the incident.
"I can confirm that he and Valorie have been divorced since April 2023, her representative, Christina Diamantas, told us. "She is not the victim."
We spoke to Curry's rep, who told us, the two have been divorced since April, and she is not his alleged victim.
Underwood — also known for his role in The Following and Dynasty — was taken into custody by the Los Angeles Police Department at 2:55 AM.
According to the booking sheet, he was booked at 4:44 AM on $50k bail but was released on his own recognizance at 1:16 PM without paying a dime. It also listed the brown-haired, blue-eyed actor's weight at 200 pounds.
The two played cult members on "The Following."
The alleged victim had visible marks on her body but did not require medical attention, reported TMZ. Underwood allegedly plans on proving his innocence by giving the police photographs, videos, and audio records sometime this week, which he believes will dispel the domestic battery accusations.
