Rip Torn has been arrested several times for incidents involving intoxication.
A Connecticut judge says Rip Torn doesn't qualify for a special probation program that would have cleared his record of charges that he broke into a bank while drunk and armed in January.
The 79-year-old Emmy-winning actor was denied accelerated rehabilitation in Litchfield Superior Court on Wednesday.
Judge James Ginocchio (GIHN-ah-chee-oh) says the charges are too serious, especially given Torn's past problems with alcohol. One of the gun charges carries a mandatory minimum 1-year prison sentence.
The case now continues toward a trial.
Torn is charged with breaking into a bank near his Salisbury home on the night of Jan. 29. Police say he was carrying a loaded gun and was so intoxicated that he thought it was his house.
