Doherty's four-week wait
Singer Pete Doherty must wait four weeks to learn if he faces jail time over drugs offences.
The Babyshambles front man has been warned that he could face prison or a community order for driving illegally while in possession of crack, heroin, ketamine and cannabis.
During his appearance at West London Magistrates' Court, he offered to show the position in his stomach where he had an implant to help him kick his drug habit.
His lawyer Sean Curran told the court that Doherty, 28, has been on a detox programme and 'presents himself certainly looking a lot better' since his appearance last month.
District Judge Davinder Lachlar said: 'What I have in mind is to adjourn this matter for four weeks to assess his motivation. What I have in mind is a community order or prison.'
Doherty was arrested on May 5 when his Jaguar was stopped by officers in Kensington High Street, west London.
At that time, Judge Lachlar gave him a chance to prove he wanted to get clean and ordered him to detox or face jail.
Doherty has appeared in court on a number of occasions in the past ten months.
This man has had more chances when it comes to drug related offences than any i know.. and i clearly think it's because he's in the public eye, he's been offered help time and time again to clean his act up and hasn't.. i'm not saying it's easy to come off drugs, but maybe a stint inside will make him realise that just because he has a "celebrity status" that doesn't make him exempt from any charges brought against him.
