Robert Cosby Jr., the son of “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Mary Cosby, has pleaded guilty to assault and violating a protective order, court documents show.

Cosby, 23, entered his plea Nov. 25 in Salt Lake County District Court, according to the records.

Cosby had faced more than a dozen charges stemming from incidents from September to November related to violations of orders to stay away from his wife, Alexiana Smokoff.

Court records show he pleaded guilty to two counts of violation of a pretrial protective order and assault of a peace officer. A charge of property damage greater than or equal to $5,000 was held in abeyance, meaning he pleaded guilty or no contest and that after he completes the conditions of the plea agreement the charge will be dismissed.

Other charges, including criminal trespass, interfering with a peace officer and failure to stop at command of law enforcement, were dropped with prejudice as part of the agreement.
