It had been too long since we’d heard from Randy Quaid and his insane wife Evi – though if they keep these antics up, we may never hear from them again. The Quaids pressed their luck with a Santa Barbara, Calif., court, and when you fight the law, the law usually wins. Especially if you’re wanted as fugitives. The eccentric pair was thrown in the slammer Monday by Superior Court Judge Frank Ochoa for missing not one, but several hearings in their felony case. “They came to court this morning hoping that Judge Ochoa would forgive them for not showing up a few weeks ago, but the judge decided they showed disrespect by prior failures to appear,” Santa Barbara D.A. Arnie Tolks said. Randy and Evi Quaid posted bail of $100,000 each and left after three hours. The D.A. also said that Randy flashing his Golden Globe from the 1988 miniseries LBJ: The Early Years during his last court date did not go over well: “They both apologized to the court, but the judge didn’t take it lightly.” The pair originally were arrested in Marfa, Texas, in September after allegedly skipping out on a $10,000 bill at the exclusive San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara. Although they have since paid their outstanding bill, prosecutors say a crime was still committed … and they’ve been pretty difficult to pin down in the process. In fact, Randy and Evi Quaid were facing extradition for a time … this over an unpaid bill. She has also been involved in numerous unrelated run-ins with cops. Real normal.
