Alec Baldwin will spend an entire day in an anger management class after pleading guilty to harassing a man over a parking dispute, the Associated Press reports.

Baldwin, whose net worth is reportedly $65 million, will also pay a $120 fine for the second-degree harassment violation.

This is not the first time Baldwin's temper has led him to trouble. The actor, well-known for starring in 30 Rock and for his impersonation of President Trump on Saturday Night Live, was arrested in 2014 for disorderly conduct after riding his bicycle the wrong direction in New York City. In 1995, Baldwin was placed under citizen's arrest after allegedly punching a cameraman for photographing the homecoming of his newborn daughter, per the Los Angeles Times.

Baldwin's temper was also called into question in 2007 when a voicemail of him calling his then-11-year-old daughter a "rude, thoughtless little pig" was publicized, again in 2011 when he refused to stop playing a "Words with Friends" game on an American Airlines flight and was subsequently kicked off the plane, and then in 2013 when he was caught on-tape yelling a homophobic slur at a photographer.
