Lawyer: Sheen to plead guilty to misdemeanor

? Charlie Sheen could work at a Colorado theater company by day and spend his nights in jail under a deal reached with prosecutors that calls for him to plead guilty to a misdemeanor assault charge in his domestic abuse case, an attorney said Monday.

In exchange, prosecutors would drop criminal mischief and felony menacing charges stemming from an argument Sheen had with his wife on Christmas Day at an Aspen home where they were on vacation, said Yale Galanter, an attorney for Brooke Mueller Sheen.

The deal calls for Sheen to serve a 30-day sentence and three months probation, the lawyer said.

A judge must still approve the agreement. A hearing set for Monday was continued until July 12. Attorneys planned to meet today in Aspen to discuss the case, Galanter said.

Sheen was at the courthouse with his lawyer Richard Cummins, but neither offered any comments after the proceedings.

Galanter said Brooke Mueller Sheen remained supportive of her husband.
