“That’s So Raven” star, Orlando Brown is going to get his head checked to see if he’s fit to stand trial in his Ohio criminal case … opening the door to a possible plea of not guilty by reason of insanity.
According to legal docs obtained by TMZ, Brown’s attorney is asking for a mental evaluation to see if the disgraced actor is mentally fit for trial.
Orlando’s charged with aggravated menacing, a first-degree misdemeanor in Ohio, for his December arrest. The former Disney star previously pled not guilty, but the results of the evaluation could lead to Orlando changing that plea.
