Nick Diaz will be due back in court very soon.
After the enigmatic fan favorite was arrested on felony and misdemeanor counts of domestic battery last Friday (May 25, 2018), a court representative confirmed to MMA Fighting that Diaz was due to appear before judge Amy Chelini at 8:30 a.m. on June 6.
Diaz was booked on domestic battery by strangulation and domestic battery in the first degree charges, the first of which is a felony, and was released from the Clark County Detention Center after making $18,000 bail on Friday night.
According to Larry Hadfield, a spokesperson for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, police had probable cause to arrest Diaz after police had been dispatched to a Las Vegas home. Tonight, the LVMPD released his mugshot:
Diaz has been out of action since he lost a unanimous decision to Anderson Silva at UFC 183 in 2015, a result that was changed to a no contest when Silva tested positive for elevated testosterone levels. Diaz also tested positive for marijuana metabolites and was initially suspended five years for the repeat offense, a suspension that has long since expired.
Diaz also recently saw a one-year whereabouts suspension from USADA expire. His issues with the UFC’s anti-doping partner would appear to be trivial compared to his pending legal case, however.
