The 60-year-old actor is scheduled to appear in a Manhattan courtroom Wednesday morning. He’s charged with misdemeanor attempted assault and harassment, a violation.

Baldwin has denied punching anyone in the Nov. 2 clash. The former “30 Rock” star’s lawyer says he’ll be vindicated by “incontrovertible video evidence.”
