Pledger faced the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Monday, charged with four assault offences.

He was granted bail and was to be transported to hospital for review and treatment pursuant to an in-patient assessment order.

The actor was ordered to return to court yesterday but failed to turn up, prompting magistrate Justin Foster to issue a warrant for his arrest.

He is also known for his work in TV shows Silversun and CrashBurn earlier in his career.

Police said he is known to frequent Melbourne's inner-city suburb of Northcote and the surrounding areas.
