Yes, during the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which started in December, 1955, he was arrested along with many others who nonviolently demonstrated there in opposition to segregated seating. This was one of the earliest mass protests in the US civil rights movement. King spent two weeks in jail but drew welcome public attention to the boycott.
