Mike Malin, popularly known as Mike Boogie of the hit reality competition series "Big Brother," was found guilty of felony stalking after being arrested and charged in August of 2019.

According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, the restauranteur first pleaded not guilty in his 2019 arrest for stalking "Big Brother" contestant Dr. Will Kirby.

Boogie then withdrew his first plea and changed it to "no contest"- a plea wherein the defendant accepts conviction but does not admit that he's guilty.

In April, the judge sentenced Boogie to two-year probation, and he is now required to spend three days in a Los Angeles County jail. He will also pay $70 and is expected to serve at least 30 days in a residential treatment program.

Mike will also pay an unknown amount of restitution to Dr. Kirby, which will be determined in a future hearing.

Besides the fee mentioned above, Malin will also pay $300 restitution to the court, which will be "effective upon the revocation of probation" and will be under the supervision of his probation officer.

The reality TV star will be required to complete 160 hours of community service.

The court also instructed malin that he shall not own or purchase any firearms or ammunition and is ordered to surrender any gun that he owns at the moment.
