Attorneys for Sean "Diddy" Combs late Wednesday filed a motion asking that Combs' conviction earlier this month be thrown out or, barring that, that he be given a new trial.

Sean “Diddy” Combs has asked the judge who is overseeing his case to acquit him or give him a new trial – before he has even been sentenced.

At a hearing following his conviction, Judge Arun Subramanian denied a defense request for Combs to be released on $1 million bail, saying his attorneys had conceded during the eight-week trial that he was violent in his personal relationships and had failed to prove that Combs does not pose a danger to others.
