Jonathan Majors has been sentenced in his assault and harassment case.

The actor has avoided jail time but will have to complete a counseling program and attend 52 weeks of in-person domestic abuser’s intervention, via The Associated Press. He is also required to continue routine mental health therapy sessions.

Majors was found guilty of one count of misdemeanor assault in the third degree and one count of harassment in December 2023, stemming from a March 2023 altercation with his then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari in New York City. He was acquitted of two additional counts of assault and aggravated harassment. The Manhattan-based jury deemed the actor guilty of recklessly causing physical harm, but not guilty of deliberate physical harm.

Majors arrived at sentencing on the morning of April 8 hand-in-hand with current girlfriend Meagan Good, who has notably publicly supported the actor since the early days of his formal charges and trial proceedings.
