CHRIS BROWN WILL CONTINUE REHAB STINT, JUDGE SAYS

Los Angeles superior court judge James R. Brandin decides that the "Yeah 3x" singer should continue his rehab stint despite a prosecutor's motion to send him to jail.

According to reports, Chris Brown will remain in rehab for now. A prosecutor filed a motion to put the singer in jail during, on Monday, February 3rd court. Nonethless the judge turned it down. Los Angeles superior court judge James R.Brandlin said that Brown should stay in Rehab for anger managemen and drug problem, telling the "Yeah 3x" singer, "It appears your doing well in the program".

"He appears to have a more serious and responsible demeanour and is responding well to dual diagnosis treatment program and changes in medication, his probation officer wrote, as reported by CNN.

Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney Mary Murray previously argued that Brown should be put in jail following his Washington D.C arrest in October. Murray said that Brown's outburst was ''increasing in severity and intensity'', citing the arrest and an incident in which Brown threw a brick through his mother's car window.

After the hearing, Brown's lawyer Mark Geragos commented, "There's no reason to put him into custody at this point. We're happy that the judge agreed with us". The grammy-winning singer will be in rehab facility until February 19th. He is next scheduled to appear in court on Febraury 28th. He is also set to travel to Washington for a hearing on the assualt charge on February 20th.
