A last-minute plea agreement has spared Rihanna from the witness stand and Chris Brown from jail.

Shortly before today’s preliminary hearing on Brown’s assault charges, the singer reached a deal that would place the the 20-year-old on five years probation. Chris was also ordered to perform six months of community labor back in his home state of Virginia. Any violation could place the musician behind bars for four years.

Although it was reported that the judge had ordered Brown to stay away from his victim, the Los Angeles Times says Rihanna is not interested in that condition.
