A mental competency status conference was held on Tuesday for the woman who allegedly barricaded herself inside the Hollywood Hills home of "American Pie" actor Eddie Kaye Thomas.

Roxanna Bear, 32, kept police at bay with a knife last month during a standoff that lasted for several hours.

Thomas, 32, is best known for his role as Paul Finch in the "American Pie" film series.

Criminal proceedings against Bear were suspended earlier this month after her attorney expressed doubts about her mental competency.

Bear is now scheduled to return to court on July 9.
