HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Craig Robinson, who stars on the hit series "The Office," pleaded guilty to a felony charge of ecstasy possession Wednesday, People magazine reports.
The 36-year-old actor had a felony charge of methamphetamine possession and a misdemeanor charge of being under the influence dropped against him, according to People.
"The judge allowed him to enter a drug-diversion program," L.A. District Attorney spokeswoman Jane Robison tells the magazine. "If he completes counseling and stays clean for 18 months, the case will be dismissed.
Robinson, who stars as Darryl Philbin on the NBC comedy, was arrested in Culver City, Calif. on June 29. He was initially stopped for a traffic violation, but authorities discovered drugs in his vehicle.
"Mr. Robinson really appreciates and takes seriously the opportunity which has been given to him by the court and the prosecution to have all of the charges against him dismissed, upon successful completion of a counseling program," said his attorney, Blair Berk, in a statement.
In addition to his role as a warehouse foreman on "The Office," Robinson also appears in the current comedy film "Pineapple Express."
