Chris Brown wants Rihanna restraining order lifted

Washington (ANI): Chris Brown's attorney requested a judge to remove the restraining order against his client during a review hearing in the singer's Rihanna beating case. Brown, along with his legal ace attorney Mark Geragos, arrived to the courthouse in downtown Los Angeles.

Geragos told Judge Patricia Schnegg that his client has completed his 52 week domestic violence counseling and requested she remove the existing restraining order against Brown, reports Radaronline.com. "It makes it difficult at award shows and such," Geragos said.

The judge didn't immediately grant his request, but suggested a modification to the restraining order with the approval of Rihanna's attorney David Etra.
