Rob Kardashian Pleads Not Guilty To Misdemeanor Charges
BEVERLY HILLS (CBSLA.com) — Reality star Rob Kardashian pleaded not guilty Wednesday to two misdemeanor counts stemming from an alleged altercation with a female paparazzo.
The 26-year-old, who is best known for his appearances on his family's reality TV show and "Dancing With The Stars", was charged with one count each of battery and petty theft in connection to the March 27 incident.
Kardashian reportedly grabbed the photographer's camera and removed the memory card after she allegedly took a picture of him without his shirt on at a commercial parking structure in Beverly Hills.
The woman said he struck her in the face during the scuffle.
Kardashian was allowed to remain free on his own recognizance, which was objected by the prosecution who had asked for $21,000 bail to be set.
A pretrial hearing is scheduled for May 29.
The photographer has since filed a civil lawsuit against Kardashian.
