Chris Brown could re-do community service

Los Angeles - Los Angeles prosecutors are asking a judge to order Chris Brown to re-do his community service because of significant discrepancies in records submitted to a court.

Deputy District Attorney Mary Murray writes in a motion filed on Wednesday that the records submitted by Richmond, Virginia police to prove the R&B singer performed six-months of community labour are "at best sloppy documentation and at worst fraudulent reporting".

Brown was allowed to perform his community labour sentence for the 2009 beating of Rihanna in his home state of Virginia.

Richmond police submitted paperwork last year indicating Brown had completed his sentence, but the logs showed the singer performing double shifts in the city and at a day care centre where his mother once worked.

A phone message for Brown's attorney wasn't immediately returned.
