Tommy Robinson has arrived at the Old Bailey to find out whether he'll be sent back to prison for posting videos online about trials.
A large crowd of supporters gathered outside the central London court ahead of the far-Right activist's latest court appearance over contempt of court.
Asked if he was feeling confident, Robinson told the Press Association: 'Yeah, quietly.'
Tommy Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, arrives at the Old Bailey today to hear whether he faces being sent back to prison for breaching contempt of court laws
Earlier today, Robinson posted a video of himself ahead of his contempt of court hearing
The far-right activist was released from prison last month after three leading judges quashed a finding made at Leeds Crown Court in May, and granted him conditional bail from a 13-month jail sentence.
Robinson, 35, is expected to appear at the Old Bailey on Thursday under his real name, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, to face a fresh hearing over the allegation
Earlier today, he posted a video online today, in which he branded the case a 'crock of s***'.
Robinson is alleged to have committed contempt of court by filming people in a criminal trial and broadcasting footage on social media.
Robinson left HMP Onley in Rugby on August 1 but could face being sent back to jail if the judge finds him in contempt - the maximum sentence is two years imprisonment.
He was jailed in May after filming people involved in a criminal trial and broadcasting the footage on social media, and has already served the equivalent of a four-month sentence.
Scores of supporters of the far-Right activist have gathered outside London's Old Bailey

Robinson was sentenced to 10 months' imprisonment for contempt of court, which he admitted, and a further three months for breaching a previous suspended sentence.
In May last year he faced contempt proceedings over footage he filmed during the trial of four men who were later convicted of gang-raping a teenage girl.
A judge at Canterbury Crown Court gave him a three-month suspended sentence for that offence and told him his punishment was not about 'freedom of speech or freedom of the press' but about 'justice and ensuring that a trial can be carried out justly and fairly'.
There was a large police presence outside the court as supporters gathered this morning
Robinson appealed against both contempt findings at a hearing last month heard by Lord Chief Justice Lord Burnett, Mr Justice Turner and Mrs Justice McGowan.
They found the judge at Leeds should not have commenced contempt proceedings that day.
Lord Burnett said 'no particulars of the contempt were formulated or put to the appellant', and there was 'a muddle over the nature of the contempt being considered'.
He added: 'Where a custodial term of considerable length is being imposed, it should not usually occur so quickly after the conduct which is complained of; a sentence of committal to immediate custody had been pronounced within five hours of the conduct taking place.'
The judges dismissed Robinson's appeal in respect of the contempt finding at Canterbury Crown Court.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
