Randy Quaid and his wife booked on felony charges

  
Actor Randy Quaid and his wife were booked into Santa Barbara County Jail on Monday afternoon on felony charges connected to their alleged failure to pay a hotel bill, authorities said.

Quaid and his wife, Evi, had previously failed to appear in court on felony charges of defrauding an innkeeper, burglary and criminal conspiracy, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department said.

Both were booked in lieu of $100,000 bail, which they posted. The couple left the jail complex about 4:30 p.m. Monday, the department said.

Quaid's attorney, Robert Sanger, was not available for comment Monday afternoon.

Their next scheduled court appearance is Wednesday.
