Brown is released following today's proceedings.

Brown and his bodyguard Christopher Hollosy are accused of punching Parker Adams outside the W Hotel in October. Adams says Brown hit him after he tried to get in a photograph with the singer.

Brown had rejected plea deal offers until today.

Brown spent several months in jail in California this year after a judge ruled that Brown had violated his probation stemming from the 2009 assault case involving former girlfriend and singer Rihanna.
