Country music star Morgan Wallen could reportedly serve "significant" time in jail. Wallen, 31, was arrested in Nashville, Tennessee earlier this year for disturbing behavior on a rooftop bar. He allegedly threw a chair off the roof of a bar.

The chair smashed into the ground several stories below and, while it thankfully didn't harm anyone, Wallen could have done serious damage, or perhaps even killed someone. He's now facing three felony counts of reckless endangerment. It doesn't sound like Wallen will be getting special celebrity treatment in the court case, either.



Wallen could be facing serious jail time. A report from Life & Style indicates that Wallen, a Tennessee native, could be in jail for more than a month. Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images Wallen, who wore a No.

He’s likely to spend time behind bars.” According to the report, Wallen's "best case" is to serve one to two months behind bars. "Morgan is being told the best scenario is a 30- to 60-day sentence," the source added.

“I don’t think the prosecutors want him to skate away with no time because people will think it’s because of his celebrity status.” Wallen is hoping to get the charges dropped down to misdemeanors, which could significantly reduce or perhaps eliminate how much jail time he'd have to serve. But it sounds like one of the biggest stars in country music is facing some serious legal problems right now.
