Sean "Diddy" Combs made a court appearance on Thursday, where it was determined the disgraced music mogul will stand trial in Spring 2025.
Judge Arun Subramanian scheduled Diddy's trial to begin on May 5. The prosecution expects the government's case to take three weeks to lay out, while Diddy's legal team estimated needing one week to argue the rapper's defense.
The US Attorneys Office also noted the investigation is ongoing and pointed to the possibility of a superseding indictment, which could lengthen the trial.
Combs' family attended his status conference at a Manhattan courthouse, where Diddy's defense and the prosecution discussed issues regarding the evidence discovery process and potential trial dates. Diddy's mother, Janice Combs, arrived roughly an hour before her son's scheduled court appearance in a black Cadillac SUV. She was escorted into the courthouse by a woman and a security guard.
