“Jackass” star Bam Margera will stand trial on charges that he punched his brother during an altercation at their home in April.

which include simple assault and making terroristic threats. He has been free on $50,000 bail and said Thursday that he has been in drug and alcohol treatment this year and living with former Los Angeles Lakers star Lamar Odom.

He said that Bam — upset on a Sunday morning after seeing a text that suggested he needed mental health treatment — struck him in the nose and ear and ruptured his eardrum. Jess Margera's girlfriend called police after Bam kicked in her bedroom door, he said. He argued that the brothers often perform such antics for the cameras. The Chester County magistrate rejected the argument, noting that no cameras were rolling at the time.

By the end of the hearing — which was delayed for several hours by Bam Margera's delayed flight from California — both sides seemed most interested in ensuring that he remains in treatment.
