But this isn't Short's first time dealing with the law in such a manner.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the star was arrested last year in Dallas after getting into bar fight over the Fourth of July.
As for his domestic case, Short was fired from Scandal after now ex-wife Tanee McCall filed a restraining order accusing the actor of threatening to kill her.
According to McCall, Short came to her in a jealous rage, accusing her of cheating before threatening to kill them both.
McCall also claims that Short choked her in the process.
How long will it be until Short is released? Only time will tell!
