Barry Bonds has arrived at the federal courthouse in San Francisco to face 15 felony charges that he lied to a federal grand jury about his performance-enhancing drug use.
Baseball's home run king pleaded not guilty to similar accusations in December, but a judge ordered prosecutors to rewrite the indictment. The new indictment includes no new allegations.
Bonds is expected to plead not guilty again Friday during his arraignment. He is then to appear at a conference where a trial date may be set.
Prosecutors say Bonds lied when he told a grand jury investigating the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative in 2003 that he never knowingly took performance-enhancing drugs.
