Chris BrownChris Brown has been ordered to appear in court next month.

The singer was called in as part as a routine progress hearing on Tuesday as part of his felony battery conviction for assaulting then-girlfriend, Rihanna. While he didn't attend in person to report this time, Judge Patricia Schnegg, has expressed concerns about a discrepancy in hours that the Grammy Award-winning star had completed in his required community labor.

The judge asked the probation department to establish where Chris resides because he owns a home in Los Angeles, California and had been doing his community service in his native state of Virginia. She also wants an audit done on Chris' hours to ensure the accuracy leading to her order for him to appear at his next progress report on August 21, according to website RadarOnline.

Last month a fight broke out between Drake and Chris' entourages in a New York City club that resulted in Chris receiving stitches for a gash to his chin. There were multiple injuries from shards of glass from broken bottles, including Eva Longoria's ex-husband, Tony Parker.

Lindsay Lohan Impresses Judge

Lindsay LohanLindsay Lohan was praised by the judge during her court hearing on Wednesday.

The actress - who has been working at the Los Angeles County Morgue as part of her sentence for breaking her probation in relation to a 2007 DUI (driving under the influence) case - received a positive report from Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner, who had been in touch with the morgue and probation department.

"I'm pleased to say she's done it all. Just keep doing what you're doing, you appear to be doing it well. The probation officer has written a favorable report, as has the volunteer center," Sautner told her.

Lindsay has certainly been adhering to the terms of her probation and completed the last month's carefully parsed-out requirements, which include the completion of 12 more days of community service at the morgue, four psychotherapy sessions and meeting with her probation officer. At the start of the hearing, Sautner announced Lindsay's next court date would be postponed one week - to February 22 - because the court is busy on February 17.
