Jose Reyes was charged with domestic abuse in a Maui court back in October after being arrested during a vacation in Hawaii with his wife. The Colorado Rockies shortstop pleaded not guilty and will now stand trial in April, Maui County deputy prosecuting attorney Kerry Glen told the New York Daily News.

Glen said the trial will take place on April 4, but a plea agreement could still be reached before then.

"If I find that acceptable, we would enter into that agreement," Glen said. "There is always potential for additional negotiation between now and then."

Reyes, 32, is also facing a suspension from the MLB. Commissioner Rob Manfred has the power to hand down a punishment to Reyes regardless of the outcome of the legal case thanks to the league's new domestic violence policy.

Reyes' wife reportedly sustained injuries, as documented when police and medics arrived at the scene. A security guard at the Wailea Four Seasons Resort said she had suffered injuries to her left leg as well as scratches on her neck. Reyes allegedly grabbed her by the throat and shoved her into the sliding glass door in their hotel room.

The MLB is currently reviewing domestic violence cases involving Reyes, Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman and Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig. All are subject to a suspension as Manfred reviews the evidence obtained by the MLB. He can discipline the players for just cause.

Reyes was traded to the Rockies at the non-waiver deadline in the blockbuster deal that sent shortstop Troy Tulowitzki to the Toronto Blue Jays. The veteran wasn't thrilled about the trade, but now it'll be tough for the Rockies to find a team to take on his costly contract, in addition to this domestic violence baggage.

In 13 MLB seasons, Reyes owns a .290/.339/.431 stat line with 1,030 runs scored, 118 home runs, 621 RBI and 479 stolen bases with the Mets, Marlins, Blue Jays and Rockies.
