The estranged father of actress Lindsay Lohan made his first appearance in court on domestic violence charges.

Michael Lohan walked out of jail on Wednesday after Judge Walter Heinrich set bail at $5,000. Lohan is accused of grabbing his on-and-off girlfriend and pushing her down multiple times during an argument at her Tampa condo Sunday. The judge told Lohan to stay away from 28-year-old Kate Major.

The 51-year-old Lohan told reporters he "didn't do anything" and this was his girlfriend's way of making money.

Authorities say Lohan went to Major's condo and that she decided to let him stay even though she had a temporary domestic violence injunction against him in Sarasota County.

A call to Lohan's lawyer, Michael Perry, was not immediately returned.
