Charlie Sheen is facing arraignment Monday in connection with his Christmas Day arrest on domestic violence allegations involving his wife.

The star of TV's "Two and a Half Men" and his wife, Brooke, are both to appear in an Aspen courtroom before District Court Judge Boyd.

They are expected to ask him to modify a restraining order that separates them. Attorneys say they want to reconcile.

The actor is scheduled to enter a plea in his Dec. 25 arrest on suspicion of felony menacing, second-degree assault and criminal mischief.

A police officer's arrest affidavit quoted Brooke Sheen as saying the actor held a knife to her throat.

Sheen denies threatening or hitting his wife.
