As well as sentencing him to two years' probation, California's court ordered Justin, 20, to pay $80,900 (£47,160) in damages, serve five days of community service and complete an anger management programme. He was not present in court for the arraignment. "Justin is glad to get the matter resolved and behind him," a spokesperson for the singer said in a statement. "He will continue to move forward focusing on his career and his music." Justin had been under investigation for the egg-throwing incident since the start of the year, when his neighbour in Calabasas alleged that he had caused around £20,000 of damages.
