Brown pleaded guilty to simple assault Tuesday morning in a Washington DC courtroom.
The case was tied to a confrontation outside the W hotel in Washington last October.
Prosecutors say Brown and his bodyguard punched a man who was trying to take a selfie with Brown and two women.
The judge fined him $150 and released him on time served. He had been in jail for two days already in the case.
After accepting the plea deal, Brown told the judge, "I'm sorry. I am very sorry."
Brown had been on probation for a 2009 attack on the singer Rihanna, his girlfriend at the time.
