Earlier this week (ends24Aug07), the star - real name Inga Marchand - was accused of lying to police about her name and address during a 31 July (07) traffic stop in New Jersey.

Officers alleged Marchand was driving while talking on her cellphone and ignoring a stop sign. Upon further investigation, they found she was driving on a suspended license. The traffic stop came just one day after Marchand allegedly attacked her neighbour Arlene Raymond with a Blackberry phone.

Marchand, 27, was arraigned on felony assault charges in Brooklyn Criminal Court last week (16Aug07). The rapper was summoned to Manhattan Criminal Court on Wednesday (22Aug07), where Judge Melissa Jackson ruled Marchand's recent incidents had violated her probation stemming from a 2006 assault conviction. Jackson ordered Brown to remain behind bars until her next court hearing, reports TMZ.com.

Marchand was sentenced to three years probation last year (06) after she was found guilty of assaulting two manicurists in 2004. The Candy star was also arrested in Florida in February (07) for battery and resisting arrest in a Pembroke Pines beauty store.
