Troubled R&B singer Chris Brown can rest a little easier now that one of his many legal cases has finally been settled.
According to Radaronline, Brown, who has been sitting in a Virginia jail since March, when he was arrested for allegedly violating his rehab sentence, “previously made a settlement deal with all the victims of his bloody brawl opposite his nemesis, rapper Drake, 27, at former NYC club W.I.P. in June 2012. But when lawyers representing W.I.P. filed a motion to withdraw from their positions in March, negotiations nearly crumbled.”
In opposition to the W.I.P. motion, Brown filed documents in April arguing that it “took months, included numerous sessions with the court, and required many hours of attorney negotiation,” and the disgruntled lawyers’ “withdrawal at this critical moment in the settlement process would materially adversely impact the parties’ ability to execute and finalize the settlement agreement.”
Later that month, all parties were ordered to appear for a compliance conference, where the judge would make a final ruling.
Recently, Brown was sentenced to an additional 131 days in jail after admitting that he had violated his probation by assaulting his Washington, D.C., victim late last year. –ruthie hawkins/@ruubabie
