Diddy is expected to avoid any charges stemming from an incident with a UCLA football coach back in June, New York Daily News reports.
The Los Angeles county district attorney declined to file charges and the case fell to the City Attorney, who could file a misdemeanor prosecution.
Puff Daddy and his lawyer are scheduled to meet with the City Attorney October 15 for a hearing that will seek to resolve the case without a misdemeanor complaint.
“It’s an informal proceeding that will determine if there are alternatives to filing charges – which could include restitution, anger management classes or community service,” City Attorney spokesman Rob Wilcox says.
Puff Daddy was arrested and released in June for assault, terrorist threats and battery for allegedly confronting a strength and conditioning coach with a kettle bell. The rapper maintains the action was in self-defense.

Puff Daddy’s son, Justin Combs, will return to football practice with the UCLA Bruins, TMZ reports.
Head coach Jim Mora met with the junior cornerback to make amends for the June 22 confrontation between Diddy and the strength and conditioning coach.
The Bad Boy Records owner is still not allowed at practices.
He posted on Instagram yesterday (August 13) to show his support for the team.

Puff Daddy will not face felony charges stemming from his alleged assault of a UCLA football coach June 22, according to Variety.
“We are thankful that the District Attorney rejected Felony charges in this matter,” Diddy’s attorney, Mark Geragos, says in a statement. “This case never should have been part of the criminal justice system to begin with.”
Los Angeles’ City Attorney’s Office will determine whether or not Puff Daddy will be charged with a misdemeanor for his alleged involvement in the incident.
(The most recent update of this story ran June 23, 2015. The original thread of the story is available as follows.)
Puff Daddy was arrested today (June 22) on UCLA‘s campus for getting into a fight with a football coach, TMZ reports.
The rapper’s son, Justin, is a defensive back on the football team. Diddy watched practice from the sidelines as an assistant coach yelled at his son during a strength and conditioning drill.
Diddy then confronted the coach inside his office and was arrested for assault.
At the time of publication, he is still in custody on UCLA’s campus.
Snoop Dogg’s son, Cordell Broadus, also plays football for the Bruins.

UPDATE #2: A Puff Daddy representative has issued a statement regarding the alleged altercation in which Diddy was involved yesterday, per REVOLT.
“The various accounts of the event and charges that are being reported are wholly inaccurate,” the statement says. “What we can say now is that any actions taken by Mr. Combs were solely defensive in nature to protect himself and his son. We are confident that once the true facts are revealed, the case will be dismissed.”
Word kick his ass sea bass
Nigga what?
The police should be praising diddy for stopping the coach from possibly murdering his son instead of arresting him.
No. Puffy deserves no praise for acting like an idiot. He was outta line.
Please tell me you wouldn’t have done the same thing if the coach was harrasing your son like that.
The only one doing the harassing was Puff. No mattet how you cut it, he’s still wrong.
The police jst need money and we all know that
Meanwhile he be quite as hell when 50 Cent be coming for his head

Nikka your name is tickdick stfu. I bet you won’t call him that to his face….dicky stupidity sticko boo
Dumb decision by Diddy I understand but hey its football what happens on the field is between the coaches and players. But some people are taking this a little too serious it happens all the time. Parents and coaches get into it all the time some are arrested. No big deal. What’s funny is I read about this on fox news the white folks are really spewing alot of racist shit about it.
Never criticise a man 4 his decisions…u weren’t in his shoes when he had 2 make dem….every humans always feel he/she is smarter than d rest…jus lik everyone here…yall go get money and stop wailing lik d real bitch!!!
He knew better! You are not in NY Puffy! It’s the law in CA to sue! They even make songs about it!
people cant really critisize puffy unless they were there … maybe he was out of line but maybe the coach has something against puffy and did something out of line on purpose because he was there… or disrespected him when they were talking… if another man disrespects you or your family you should put hands on him ..like if a man calls my woman a bitch, I have no choice but to teach him respect.. or maybe it was just puffys ego .. cant judge until you know the whole story .. coach couldve said get out of my face nigga lol
BS! Act maturely and responsibly or suffer the consequences.
He shouldn’t have been there in that capacity
Complementing your own comments is lame my dude
Kanye west is an artist with a mind intectul ability to think not just for now at the moment but to want to preserve not just future prosperity by kanye really wants to help other people and his self, but you cant help others until your straight yourself, however kanye is teaching other raopers to be free thinkers, and to ask themselves whats going to happen if all of a sudden the powers that be come and take everything from you , listen people dont think it cant happen, the blanc race influenced a lot of black to partake in stupidity, take a lesson from kanye think, stop killing each other, work together, keep talking with Farrakhan for advise and direction because as long as a man is positive in giving the truth your situation with grow to cut out white supremecy, which we do not know, love your brother and protect your sister, and if your afraid always do what is logical not typical, whats right not whats wrong, out, i encourage you hip hop togo free style as much as you can with god in front and the devil in the back and no where around

WTF
Asswipe
I don’t know what happened but your kid getting yelled at by college coach is nothing new. I think when you are that rich and popular the rules don’t apply to you. Everyone has seen it before he will get the best lawyer and get away with his actions.
While a guy on the street not living in an ivory tower will punch a guy and get five years what a joke this system is .
1000% true, this is a fact, it happens everyday. I guess money talks, b/s walks, they’ve been telling us this all along!!!
Hope this fucking scumbag rots in jail a while and no payoffs either. Nice work, “Dad,” and if you’re going to have steroid rage, you’d think he’d have a better physique.
Maybe it was coke and testosterone?
Diddy ‘din do nuffins’ Bwaaaaahahahahahahahahaha. It’s amazing what pieces of garbage you sheep have turned into billionaires. Your fascination with these pieces of trash is beyond reprehensible.
This limelight whor bozo thought that he could throw some money around and make the coaches play his apparent scrub son. All of his life this kid was probably thought that the whole world was at the beckoning of his clown daddy. Well on the football field money DOESN’T TALK. UCLA football isn’t some sleazy bar that can be bought off like in Brooklyn…
Lol everythinh u said is beyond false, diddys money doesnt talk , it screams boyyy!!! get real. They only pressinh charges 4 a paycheck.. daddy will get this guy into the nfl, so when u say clown, i say who??? YOU???? Def. Not diddy
This guy has 2 muchhh money, he will make it go away, worse case he will settle, it aint nothing, but pocket change to diddy.
The charge terrorist threats is just the a way of making it sound worse then it it really is. You can tell a police officer that your going to mess him or her up and they will consider it as a terrorist threat. Funny how so many people Jude Puffy calling him all types of James. However they weren’t there to se what really happen. I also see a lot of racist comments on here as well so I know where you stand when it comes to due process. At the same time it’s hilarious how we call our self men but I remember a time when we had a problem they would go out back and handle it. Now days people will talk crazy to you cross certain lines they never should and then expect you to just take them disrespect you. America has become soft. At the same time I’m not saying using you fist is the answer in just saying men are soft now days. Most you are just happen that a man who has sum sort of position has been embarrassed in public.
All I got to say is that if they actually charge him with anything to do with terrorism I’m leaving this fucking sham of a country. Some little racist fuck murders 9 people, including assassinating a senator, and left one person alive to tell everyone what happened in the name of inciting a race war and the government doesn’t call that terrorism? Racism stays winning in this hypocritical shit hole.
P.S. Ya I know you’re listening NSA, come get me.
Blame Obama for this one. Treating Americans as enemies is a staple of his administration. I don’t agree with any charge of terrorism against any American unless the intent is to destroy the country but the assault charges are warranted. You cannot go around threatening to beat people with weights and except no repercussion.
*expect not except
TERRORIST THREATS???? Puffy is with ISIS and Al Qaida now? Are we really going to charge U.S Citizens with TERRORIST THREATS now? Thank Bush! Thanks U.S Justice System. MF’s!
ISIS = Islamic terrorism
Puff Daddy = Terrorism
This isn’t even half of what Diddy deserve what’s coming to him. For all of you pussies to defend this snake is sad. Fuck Diddy.
Sean Combs is human dogshit. ZERO chance he’s not guilty, ex-NFL strength coach doesn’t go around beefing with parents etc but a scumbag’s who didn’t ever raise their own kids yet have an ego about ’em…
The life’s of the rich and famous.rich people are stupid’ they need a reality check. # lol
diddy a real boss so he can buy his way out of this but officer ricky had to put up everything he owned just to make bail, he doing a year min
hopefully his daddy can let his son be a man this time
Just saw on REELZ a documentary that proved he contracted the hit on Tupac, but once the detectives proved that they weren’t negligent in the wrongful death of Biggie Smalls they dropped the case and that’s how Puff Daddy got away with murder! Shame on you!
Puffy is soft as hell. Aint no way he try that shit on a real man. You know he had his entourage with him. Aint no one scared of that soft , come in numbers fuck shit he does. he will get the brakes beat of him in real life. Puff needs sit his ass down and let his son learn discipline. Puff should be charged for felony crimes and misdemeanors. I was charged for mine.
