Singer CChris Brown looks down as he appears in the Criminal Courts Building where he reached a plea bargain. The entertainer plead guilty to one count of felony assault on his former girlfriend, pop singer Rihanna in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County on Monday, June 22nd in Los Angeles.
Chris Brown has reportedly copped a plea in his assault case. Which means he will serve NO JAIL TIME, but will be on 5 years probation. He’s also been ordered to stay 50 yards clear of Rihanna. They are permitted to attend work related events at the same time, but have to stay 10 feet from each other during those events.
Chris was also ordered to spend 180 days doing community labor (8 hours a day — 1440 hours total) in Virginia which is where he lives. A Virginia law enforcement officer told the media that Brown will be picking up trash, pulling weeds and washing fire trucks.
He must also enroll in a domestic violence counseling program and he’ll get supervised probation. If Brown violates probation, he could get up to 4 years in prison.

Looks like Rihanna will have to take the stand in Chris Brown’s felony assault case on June 22nd, her attorney confirmed:
“The judge advised me that there will be a subpoena for Rihanna as a witness at the preliminary hearing,” Donald Etra told E! News after a morning hearing. “She will definitely comply.”
And according to Chris’ attorney Mark Geragos, Chris will also be present at the hearing and will listen to her testimony: “He has to be here anytime a witness is called” said Geragos.
On Thursday, a judge denied a motion by Geragos, to require the LAPD to release confidential records to determine who leaked a photo of a beaten Rihanna to the media. Chris has pleaded not guilty to assault and criminal threats charges stemming from their February incident.
