UPDATE: Geragos has just left the courthouse.
With Chris Brown's preliminary hearing just hours away, we're hearing there's a possibility the case could be plea bargained and announced later today.
Brown's lawyer, Mark Geragos, is currently in chambers with the prosecutor and the judge.
Our sources say nothing will happen before the hearing at 1:30 PT. But get ready -- it's possible they could announce a deal then.

I'll be amazed with our legal system if he gets anything beyond a meager slap on the wrist in the form of community service.

He better NOT plea...
It's a little long overdue...Let the cards fall where they may...
Let the details and all the checks and balances be weighed in the court of law...
There's no worse that could happen because a plea would have quashed it months ago...
Besides...how did Geregos just leave the courthouse...but he's in chambers with the judge...
Please update/correct the report ASAP

I hope he gets the book thrown at him. There is NO reason to lay his hands on a woman, unless she was trying to kill him or something and then it would be self defense...but I highly doubt that's the case. Any woman that can excuse this behavior obviously has some serious self esteem issues.
