Marilyn Carter stands by her husband Dominic Carter during a break in a legal hearing in his domestic violence case last November,

Former NY1 political anchor Dominic Carter has been released from jail early, after serving two-thirds of his 30-day sentence in a domestic violence case.

The TV newsman, who was tossed into the clink in Rockland County on Jan. 14, was allowed to walk free Tuesday on good behavior.

It was 11 days before the official end of his sentence.

Carter was convicted of attempting to assault his wife, Marilyn Carter, in October 2008 and is barred from seeing her for two years or until a psychiatrist can prove interaction between the couple would be safe.

He is also on one year probation.

"He's doing well. He's working hard at a comeback," said his lawyer, Julia Kuan.
