Jane Schneck, the mother of Nick Carter and the late Aaron Carter, was arrested following a late-night dispute Friday in her Florida home over excessively loud TV volume.

Schneck, 64, was arrested and booked on one count of domestic battery after a disagreement that began when she was playing music loudly on the TV, according to Denise Moloney, public information officer for the Hernando County Sheriff's Office.

"Jane was playing the music too loud on the television and the other party wanted to go to sleep, causing the dispute, which escalated to physical," Moloney told USA TODAY.

When the other party began taking video of Schneck, she grabbed the person's wrist and arms. The unnamed person turned that video over to deputies, who then arrested Schneck for domestic battery.

No one was injured in the dispute, and Moloney noted both parties had been consuming alcohol.

Schneck was released on a $100 bond pending a court appearance, which has not been set.

Former Backstreet Boy Nick Carter is facing legal issues of his own. In a complaint filed April 11 in Los Angeles, singer Melissa Schuman, formerly of pop girl group Dream, accuses Carter, 43, of sexual assaulting her in 2003.

Schuman, 38, alleges that Carter, 43, used "his role, status and power as a well-known singer to gain access to, groom, manipulate, exploit and sexually assault," according to the lawsuit, obtained by USA TODAY.

Carter's attorney Liane K. Wakayama told USA TODAY in an emailed statement that Schuman's suit is a "PR stunt."
