Assistant District Attorney Janet Gleeson told the court that the case hasn’t yet been presented to a grand jury for possible indictment because of the ongoing plea negotiations.
“I regret my actions that led me here today,” the 29-year-old sports star.
“I understand the seriousness of this matter and I’m hopeful to get it resolved soon.”

The incident in question involved a melee between McGregor, his entourage, and other UFC stars.
Videos footage showed the dad-of-one hurling a hand truck at a bus filled with rival fighters after a news conference for the UFC 223 event at Barclays Center in April.
The incident left two fighters injured by broken glass and unable to compete.
