The request by Dave Chappelle's alleged attacker to have his bail reduced was denied on Tuesday. Isaiah Lee, 23, appeared in court Tuesday, according to FOX 11. His lawyer requested that Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Armenui Amy Ashvanian release Lee on his own recognizance, City News Service reported.
Lee is being held on $30,000 bail. A representative for Chappelle did not respond to Fox News Digital's immediate request for comment. The request by Dave Chappelle's alleged attacker to have his bail reduced was denied by a judge during a court hearing on Tuesday.
L.A. City Attorney Mike Feuer charged Lee with four misdemeanor counts: battery, possession of a weapon with intent to assault, unauthorized access to the stage area during a performance, and commission of an act that delays the event or interferes with the performer. "My office takes protecting public safety extremely seriously, and we are going to vigorously prosecute this case," Feuer said in a video.
Lee pleaded not guilty to the charges in court on Friday. Lee has been accused of storming the stage and attacking the comedian at the Hollywood Bowl on May 3 as Chappelle was performing as part of the "Netflix Is a Joke" festival. The comedian's representative confirmed to Fox News Digital that Chappelle is cooperating with police as the investigation continues.
