Headline: “Home Improvement” Star Zachery Ty Bryan Back in Jail for Probation Violation; Partner Arrested on Multiple Charges
Eugene, OR – Zachery Ty Bryan, best known for his role on the 1990s sitcom “Home Improvement,” is back in custody at the Lane County Jail due to a probation violation related to his 2023 domestic violence conviction. Bryan, 44, was booked on Saturday, November 29th. His probation for a fourth-degree assault conviction stems from a 2020 incident involving his partner, Johnnie Faye Cartwright, and is not set to expire until October 2026.
In a related development, Cartwright, 32, the mother of three of Bryan’s children, was also arrested on Saturday. She faces serious charges, including driving under the influence of intoxicants, three counts of reckless endangering, and attempted first-degree assault. She is scheduled to be arraigned this afternoon.
This is not Bryan’s first run-in with the law. He was initially arrested in Eugene in 2020 following a domestic dispute with Cartwright. While initially facing multiple charges, he was eventually convicted of menacing and was on probation for that conviction when the 2023 assault occurred. Since then, Bryan has also been arrested in Oklahoma for DUII and in South Carolina for allegedly assaulting and strangling Cartwright.
