Montana Fishburne, the eldest daughter of actor Laurence Fishburne, has been sentenced to 24 months of probation following a 2022 arrest for battery on a law enforcement officer. According to police records, Montana called 911 about an ex-boyfriend allegedly stalking and threatening her. When police arrived, she allegedly slapped one of the deputies, leading to her arrest. Montana initially pleaded not guilty but changed her plea to no contest in April. Her attorney stated that there is no admission of guilt, the case will be sealed, and she can move on with her life after completing an anger management program.

This is not the first time Montana has been in trouble with the law. In 2017, she was charged with three misdemeanors for a DUI and released the next day on bond. In 2020, she was once again arrested for driving under the influence in Florida. Laurence Fishburne, the father of Montana, has three children and shares Montana and son Langston with ex-wife Hajna O. Moss. He also coparents a daughter with Gina Torres. Montana has previously stated that she had no interest in mainstream acting and wanted to pursue a career in adult films, which she was proud of. She spoke about her passion for adult films starting at the age of 16 and stated that her mother supported her decisions.

Montana moved out of her parents’ home at 18 and stated that her mother still supports her despite her career choices. Laurence Fishburne has never publicly addressed Montana’s career aspirations or her legal issues. Montana has expressed that she made the decision to pursue adult films without wanting to hurt her parents or bring shame to the family name. She believes that her father will eventually support her decision. Her probation period will end after completing an anger management program, and her attorney has stated that the case will be sealed and she can move on with her life.

Montana Fishburne’s legal troubles and career choices have been a source of public interest due to her father’s fame as an actor. Montana has faced multiple arrests, including a recent incident where she was charged with battery on a law enforcement officer. Despite this, she has expressed pride in her work in adult films and stated that she made the decision to pursue this career early on. Her mother has been supportive of her decisions, and Montana has moved out on her own since turning 18. Laurence Fishburne has chosen not to publicly address his daughter’s career choices and legal issues but continues to coparent their daughter. Montana will complete an anger management program as part of her probation and hopes to move on with her life without any further legal issues.
