Amidst the on-going investigation of the battery case that involves her and ex-boyfriend , is confirmed to have been ordered to testify against him in a court hearing scheduled for next month. Her calling to take the stand against Chris is meant to determine if there is enough evidence to build a case against him, who is facing two counts of felony assault.

Rihanna's attorney, Donald Etra, confirmed the matter, telling E! News on Thursday, May 28 that the Barbadian songstress is required to testify at a preliminary hearing set to be held on June 22. "The judge advised me that there will be a subpoena for Rihanna as a witness at the preliminary hearing," Etra said, adding, "She will definitely comply."

Chris himself is also scheduled to attend the hearing. "He has to be here anytime a witness is called," his attorney Mark Geragos confirmed. In related news, E! News reported that in addition to Rihanna, the D.A. is expected to call the officers who were first to respond to the scene and find the bloodied and abandoned "Umbrella" hitmaker.

Chris Brown was briefly arrested in February this year for assaulting Rihanna. He has since been put under Los Angeles District Attorney's Office's investigation. Pleading not guilty to two felonies; assault and making criminal threats, he is facing a possible 4 years and 8 months in prison should he is found guilty in the case.

i don't think that chris brown shouldn't go to gail because he is young and young people do sily mistakes.rihanna needs to grow up and act her age.both of the don't diserve each other and need to go their seperate ways. when rihanna got knocked out. how comes rihanna went back with him. she could of done this before when she got koncked out.

chris brown and rihanna are very young and naive they should both go their separte ways.chris brown should have handled it in a another way.if it was true love things wouldn't of got this far.rihanna needs to grow up and stop being a spoilet. for chris brown punishement he needs to go to anger management classes and attend a meeting with women and men that have suffered from domestic voilence.which would give him an insiteof the consequences of his actions.

This boy has suffered long enough. He doesnt deserve to go to jail. The things the media has done to him, i wouldnt do to a stray dog. Its disgusting, and they have done the ultimate lows just to get money in their pockets.

Brown is a moron and Rihanna a brainless, talentless whore. What a couple of airhead. I would just love both of them would DISAPPEAR so that we could avoid to hear about them any given day. It seems like their PRs are trying their best to sell them no matter what. They are already annoying enough, so stop it. Send him to jail, and her at any sexy point so that she can feel herself and get paid for it in front of tax executors. She's such a skank. He's such a jerk.

i do not think he shouold be found guilty in the case because she was asking for what she got. i know he had no right of doing what he did but that dosent mean he should be charged. all rihanna is giong to do is take up for him like she did the last time if theyu are married then their isnt anything anybody can do because they are a married couple. let the =m handle it.
