Charlie Sheen Avoids Jail time; going to Rehab

Actor Charlie Sheen avoided spending any time behind bars after a plea deal with the Aspen court on Monday (August 2). Charlie pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and he will just spend his time at Malibu's Promises rehab center for 30 days.

With this plea deal, the court dismissed the other charges: felony menacing and a criminal mischief.

Aside from the required 30 days rehab, the "Two and a Half Men" actor will do 36 hours of anger management classes which he already finished and three months probation.

Talking about 30 days rehab, Sheen will only do "few seconds" at the rehab center because he had already spent more than one month at the facility earlier this year.

The actor's assault charges was in connection with his 2009 Christmas Day altercation with his estranged wife Brooke Mueller in Aspen.

With this overwhelming decision in favor of him, Charlie joked about heading to the happiest place on Earth! He said on his way out of court today, "I'm going to Disneyland."

Charlie also released this statement: "I'm very grateful to the court and to the people of Pitkin County. I look forward to complying with the court's decision, getting on with my life and putting this behind me."
