Chris Brown faces jail time, judge revokes probation

Singer Chris Brown's probation was revoked on Thursday when a judge found he should not have left Los Angeles County to perform in San Jose without the court's permission, but the entertainer was allowed to remain free at least until March.

The Turn Up the Music singer was ordered to return for a probation violation hearing on March 20, Jane Robison, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office, said in an email.

TMZ reports that the probation officer has been unimpressed with Brown's behavior since he was released from custody last year. He cites Brown throwing a rock at his mother's car while in rehab, two shooting incidents in which people were injured while Brown was present and an assault case brought against the 25-year-old.
It has also been stated Brown was focusing too much on his career and not on community service and rehabilitation.
