The Grammy winner has pleaded not guilty to punching a man in the face outside a Washington hotel in October, and his lawyers plan to argue for dismissal Monday.

Chris Brown’s entourage includes some unwanted new members — armed U.S. marshals.

The Grammy winner was collected from a Los Angeles lockup Wednesday and was out of California, en route to a Washington-area jail, as of Thursday evening, a source with the U.S. Marshals Service told the Daily News.
