Sean "Diddy" Combs is due back in court on Tuesday, where his attorneys will argue for expedited sentencing following his July 2 conviction on federal charges of transportation to engage in prostitution.

Sean “Diddy” Combs will be sentenced in his federal criminal case on Oct. 3. A judge confirmed the schedule on Tuesday after probation officials rejected the defense and prosecution’s plan to move the date up by about two weeks.

Combs rejoiced after hearing the verdict acquitting him of the most serious charges last Wednesday, falling to his knees and planting his face in his seat at the defence table. His lawyers pushed for him to be released from jail immediately, but the request was denied by Judge Arun Subramanian.
