Hope will have a mandatory court appearance on Monday. She is currently being held without bail on two counts of fourth-degree assault.

Solo's attorney, Todd Maybrown, released a statement to ET denying the accusations his client faces, and claims that the soccer star is innocent.
"Hope is not guilty of any crime. In fact, our investigation reveals that Hope was assaulted and injured during this unfortunate incident. We look forward to the opportunity to present the true facts in court and to having this matter behind Hope very soon," Maybrown stated.
ET will continue to follow this story as it develops.
