Nevertheless, the actor’s medical emergency caused the jury selection in his upcoming trial to be delayed, theNew York Postreported.
Jury selection for the trial in question, set in Oklahoma, USA, was scheduled to begin on Monday but has now been pushed back to February.
Devin’s hospitalization occurred less than two years after he was accused of raping his friend in 2017.

In August 2022, Lisa Smith claimed that she was allegedly attacked at Devin’s Manhattan apartment,according to CNN.
Lisa claimed that the actor, best known for his role as Buzz McCallister, the evil older brother ofKevin McCallister (Macauley Culkin)in the 1990s hit film, drugged her before sexually assaulting her.
The alleged victim went on to file a police report shortly after the alleged crime. Devin has since denied all accusations against him and has told CNN that he “did not have sex” with Lisa.
After hearing about Devin’s assault case, Lisa contacted prosecutors about the police report she had filed in 2017 accusing the actor of raping her.

Devin was initially arrested for the first time in December 2021 on domestic violence charges in an unrelated incident after he was accused of trying to strangle his then-girlfriend at a Hyatt hotel near downtown Oklahoma City.
The actor had gotten angry with his girlfriend, who has remained unnamed, while the pair had been drinking at a bar after she didn’t charge two female fans for his autograph, according to theDailyMail.

The fight with his girlfriend then allegedly continued into the hotel bedroom, where he allegedly got violent and tried to strangle her.
After the pair returned to their hotel room at the Hyatt, Devin allegedly pushed Lisa onto the bed before putting one hand on her throat and the other over her mouth.
“The victim had trouble breathing while she was being strangled and while the defendant’s hand was over her mouth,” according to an affidavit.
According to TMZ, the woman had filed a police report one day after the alleged incident occurred, claiming the actor had punched her in the face, put his hand over her mouth, and tried to strangle her after a feud broke out.

TMZ had obtained the probable cause affidavit at the time, in which his ex-girlfriend told authorities that Devin said: “This is how you die.”
After allegedly strangling her, Devin allegedly began violently punching her.
Devin reportedly had his first court appearance in February 2022 and entered a not-guilty plea; however, his case has been moving slowly since then.
