Zachery Ty Bryan is no stranger to legal troubles.

And now, the former Home Improvement star is headed to jail.

Though Bryan’s domestic violence arrests have made more headlines in recent years, he’s now set to serve 16 months in jail due to DUI charges.

The charges stem from an arrest that took place in February of 2024.

Bryan reportedly told the arresting officers that he had had “too much” to drink, and he admitted that his license was expired as a result of one of his multiple DUI arrests.

The troubled star was booked into the John Benoit Detention Center and held on $50,000 bail.

According to a report from Page Six, Bryan’s BAC was .15 at the time of his arrest, nearly twice the legal limit of .08.

Before the year was out, he would rack up another DUI charge after getting arrested in Custer County, Oklahoma in October of 2024.

Now, despite a plea deal, Bryan will be forced to serve time.

His bid for a 57-day time served credit was reportedly rejected by the court, meaning that he’ll be forced to serve the bulk of his 16-month sentence.

And that’s not the end of Bryan’s legal and personal troubles.

In November of last year, he was arrested after he allegedly punched and threatened his then-girlfriend.

And less than three weeks later, the same woman allegedly attempted to run Bryan over with her car.

Needless to say, Bryan’s adult years haven’t exactly gone according to plan.

In fact, a 16-month vacation from his troubles might not be such a bad thing!
