NEW YORK (AP) — Actor Jonathan Majors is set to be sentenced in New York for assaulting his former girlfriend. The once-rising Hollywood star faces up to a year in prison but could also be sentenced to probation during an appearance in a Manhattan court on Monday. Prosecutors and defense lawyers declined to say what punishment they’ll be seeking ahead of the hearing.

The conviction stems from an altercation last March with Majors’ then-girlfriend.
