Bobby Brown was sentenced on Friday to 60 days in jail for violating his probation.
The singer was sentenced for five violations including his refusal to take drug tests and pay his probation fees. It also charges Brown with failing to provide proof that he underwent counseling and completed his house arrest.
The fifth charge relates to a December misdemeanor battery charge in which police said Brown hit his wife, Grammy-winning singer Whitney Houston, leaving her with a bruised cheek and a cut inside her lip. Brown is scheduled to appear May 5 in a Fulton County court on that charge.
Brown will get credit for the week he has spent in jail since his Feb. 20 hearing before State Court Judge Wayne Purdom.
