Kevin Spacey arrived in a Nantucket courtroom on Monday morning just before 11am to attend his arraignment at the island's courthouse.
The actor was all smiles and seemed to be completely at ease as he snuck in the side door of the building, before being arraigned on a single count of Indecent Assault and Battery.
That charge carries a sentence of up to five years in jail, and Spacey was ordered to have no contact with the victim or his family.
Spacey was seen chatting and laughing with his lawyer before his case was called in front of the packed courthouse, and when it was his turn a plea of not guilty was entered on his behalf.
He was told that he could face 90 days in a prison should he commit a crime ahead of the trial and the judge ordered the actor to stay away from the teenage accuser and his family, referring to the young man as the 'victim.'
Spacey's lawyer and the prosecution then argued over a discovery motion, with the actor's team wanting all of the accuser's texts with his then-girlfriend from the 2016 incident until today and the prosecution just offering up the day of and after the the alleged assault.
The judge did not rule on the motion yet, and less than 10 minutes after he arrived, Spacey was heading back to the airport to fly home.
The actor, who only spoke the words 'thank you' during the hearing, did have to make one quick stop on the way out to see a probation officer.
The pretrial hearing in the case was set for March 4, but Spacey will not have to appear in person and can instead call in to the court
