He was acquitted of more serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian handed down a 50-month prison sentence and a $500,000 fine in October 2025.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\u200c\" href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/news\/diddy-begs-court-fast-track-appeal-before-time-runs-out\/\">Diddy appealed on claims that the Mann Act, a 1910 law originally aimed at combating forced prostitution, was misapplied in his case.<\/a> His team also argues that the judge improperly considered acquitted charges during sentencing, calling it a \u201clegal error.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><d class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><br \/>\n<d class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Diddy sentenced to 4 years in prison\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/E2fe49vf8Rs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/d><br \/>\n<\/d><\/figure>\n<p>The U.S. Court of Appeals has approved a revised schedule, which will require opening briefs to be filed by December 23, 2025, followed by the government\u2019s response by February 20, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Diddy\u2019s reply brief is expected by March 13, 2026, with oral arguments scheduled for as early as April\u2014pending the presiding judge\u2019s final approval.<\/p>\n<p>The decision comes after Diddy\u2019s legal team argued that the standard 18-month appeals process would drag on longer than his 50-month sentence, potentially rendering the appeal ineffective. His attorney, Alexandra Shapiro, pushed for a compressed schedule that would allow the court to hear arguments within months, rather than years.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecutors did not oppose the expedited timeline, which was a key factor in the court\u2019s decision to proceed at a faster pace.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\u200c\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/C1Lu-WpzNK4?si=NjUPjoom08vynnVg\">Diddy is currently incarcerated at FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey. <\/a>His projected release date is May 8, 2028, though he has already received credit for one year served and could shorten his time further through good behavior.<\/p>\n<p>The criminal case is just one part of Diddy\u2019s growing legal troubles. He is also facing nearly 100 civil lawsuits accusing him of sexual assault, harassment and psychological abuse.<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/news\/exclusive-diddys-plea-to-fast-track-to-appeal-gets-speedy-answer\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diddy\u2019s request to speed up his appeal was granted by a federal court, setting the stage for oral arguments as early as April 2026.
