 Pop star, Justin Bieber has been sentenced to two years on probation and fined $80,900. This came after he pleaded no contest to misdemeanour vandalism for throwing eggs at a neighbour’s home.

 

According to the California’s court, Bieber is to serve five days of community service and complete a 12 weeks anger management programme. He is also to stay away from the victim and his family for two years.

 

The 20 year old singer was not present at the arraignment but his lawyer, Shawn Holley, took the plea on his behalf. 

 

“Justin is glad to get this matter resolved and behind him,” Holley said in a statement after the verdict was delivered. “He will continue to move forward focusing on his career and his music.”

Bieber’s egg throwing was described by Deputy district attorney, Alan Yochelson, as an "extremely immature and silly act".

 

A spokesman of the singer disclosed said that he had since moved into a Beverly Hills apartment, and is glad that the matter had ben resolved. 

 

Asides the egg throwing case, Bieber also has two other cases in Florida and Toronto: The Toronto case has to do with his assault of a limo driver in December 2013 while the Florida case borders on driving under influence and resisting arrest even though he was driving with an expired licence.

Bieber rose at age 15, and has since released four studio albums. In 2010, His 2010 album debut . My World 2.0, earned him two Grammy awards nominations.
