Troubled R&B star Chris Brown has agreed to increase his community labour hours to four days a week so he can complete his court-ordered service by the beginning of next year (15).

The Kiss Kiss singer was back in court on Thursday (23Oct14) for an update hearing relating to the sentence he was handed as punishment for assaulting his then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.

He agreed to up his hours in a bid to complete his volunteer work and then was reprimanded by the judge for violating the terms of his probation by picking up a ticket for speeding, according to TMZ.com.
