Bobby Brown Still In Jail

Singer Bobby Brown will stay in jail until a court appearance Wednesday, DeKalb County officials said.

Brown has been in the county jail since his Friday arrest for violating his probation from an earlier drunk driving conviction.

A warrant was issued last month, but he was not arrested until Friday night, when he was spotted at a suburban Atlanta seafood restaurant with wife Whitney Houston. Another restaurant patron called police.

In January, Brown, 33, was sentenced to eight days in jail and ordered not to drive for a year after pleading guilty to a 1996 drunken driving charge in DeKalb County.

DeKalb County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Mikki Jones says Brown was arrested because he did not show up for previously court-ordered community service, drug treatment or a random drug test.

Last November, Brown was arrested in Atlanta on charges of possessing less than an ounce of marijuana, speeding and having no driver's license or proof of insurance. He also did a 26-day stint in a Florida jail in 2000 for a previous probation violation.

Brown left R&B group New Edition in the late 1980s for a solo career. His hits include "My Prerogative" and "Every Little Step."
