(ALSO SEE: Rep: Jon Jones is fully licensed and insured)

(UPDATED on 2/8/16 at 4:30 p.m. ET with an additional statement from the Albuquerque district attorney’s office.)

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones is again in trouble with the law.

The 28-year-old New York native is due in court in Albuquerque, N.M., on Wednesday after being cited for driving without a license, registration or proof of insurance.

The charges are the latest in a long string of traffic troubles for Jones (21-1 MMA, 15-1 UFC), who was confirmed this past Saturday to rematch reigning champ Daniel Cormier(17-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) at UFC 197. The pay-per-view event takes place April 23 in Las Vegas.

Jones is hoping to reclaim the title that UFC officials strip after Jones’ previous legal woes.

It’s unclear whether the charge will have any effect on Jones’ ability to fight at the event. The former champ was stripped of his belt this past April in the wake of a hit-and-run accident that left a 25-year-old pregnant woman with a broken arm. He reached a plea agreement with the state that allowed him to avoid jail time, but he was given supervised probation.

Under the terms of his probation, Jones is not supposed to break any laws.

Kayla Anderson, the public information officer for the Albuquerque district attorney’s office, initially sent the following statement to MMAjunkie:

His (judgement and sentence), Conditional Discharge, has a box that can be checked if a special condition of probation is imposed prohibiting the defendant from driving without a license. That box was not checked, so there is no special condition of probation forbidding driving without a license.

However, all defendants being supervised on probation are required generally to not violate any laws. We have not received at this time a formal report of a violation of probation. It does not appear that Mr. Jones is in custody at (the Metropolitan Detention Center).

Our office has the discretion to pursue a revocation of probation if an alleged incident arises to the level of a substantial violation of probation. Our office makes that determination after we have examined all the facts surrounding the incident. As of today, we do not have enough information about the 1/31/16 incident to make that determination, but we will examine the matter.

Generally, if we decide to pursue a probation revocation, and a judge determines that there has been a substantial violation of probation, it is up to our office whether we seek to revoke a conditional discharge, and it is up to the judge to ultimately decide if a conditional discharge will be revoked and sentence imposed. Those decisions are made on a case to case basis. The court can also impose a wide range of sanctions, some of which do not necessarily require the loss of a conditional discharge.

Later on Monday afternoon, Anderson updated MMAjunkie on the situation and said the district attorney’s office would not file a probation violation with the court, which means Jones will simply address the issue in traffic court.

A rep for Jones and the UFC did not immediately respond to request for comment.

KRQE News 13 in Albuquerque first reported the news while noting a 2011 traffic charge Jones picked up in Albuquerque for driving on a suspended license. Six months later, he crashed a 2012 Bentley given to him by the UFC and later pled guilty to DWI. He was ordered to undergo drug and alcohol counseling.

There are also other traffic charges Jones picked up over the years, which were detailed by MMAjunkie and SI.com.

In an interview this past November with MMAFighting.com, Jones spoke about turning his life around, noting he had stopped drinking and smoking pot. At that point, he was in the process of fulfilling the terms of his probation, which required him to make 72 speaking engagements. He traveled locally to schools, speaking to kids and other youth groups about his story.
