Prosecutors say there are no legal grounds to grant Combs' request to quash his convictions and that he should be sentenced as planned on Oct. 3.

Federal prosecutors argue that Combs “was anything but a producer of adult films entitled to First Amendment protection.”

Sean "Diddy" Combs doesn't deserve a new trial because “there was more than a sufficient basis” to support his conviction on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, federal prosecutors argued in a new court filing overnight, submitted in response to a July 31 defense motion requesting acquittal or a new trial.
