Furlong, 35, was arrested on Sunday for allegedly shoving his girlfriend, and was booked on suspicion of domestic battery and felony domestic violence. He was held on $50,000 bail until his appearance in court today.

Prior to his January 13 arrest, Furlong was being arraigned on a warrant for another incident of domestic violence involving his girlfriend that occurred on Dec.12. Furlong has been arrested for domestic violence in the past; the most recent in October took place at Los Angeles International Airport. Furthermore, his estranged wife, Rachel Bella, has filed a restraining order against him, which he has reportedly violated.
