The judge in Sean “Diddy” Combs' criminal case has pushed backed the date for his decision on Combs' bail request until next week, asking the rapper's legal team and New York prosecutors to lay out whether the music mogul violated any laws behind bars.

With family and friends nearby, Combs was sitting there Friday unshackled in the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse. The notoriously self-promoting rapper was denied bail twice before in quick succession by other judges just after his arrest on sex trafficking and other charges two months ago.
