Chris Brown could face prison term for the alleged D.C. assault, it has been revealed.
According to the legal documents, the officials believe that they have the evidence to support a felony prosecution, TMZ.com reported.
Brown is currently charged with misdemeanor assault and his lawyer has filed papers asking for the case to be dismissed on grounds prosecutors misusing the grand jury system.
However, prosecutors said that the injuries were serious enough to require hospitalization on the part of the alleged victim, which would justify a felony if more evidence is available.
