Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs files new appeal to be released from prison after previous attempts denied..See more 👇

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ legal team has filed an appeal for pretrial release with the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, Page Six has learned.

The appeal challenges the decision made by the Southern District of New York to deny the rapper-turned-mogul bail based on allegations of obstruction of justice and witness tampering.

Combs’ team is requesting his immediate release on appropriate bail conditions, citing alleged insufficient evidence for detention and alleged legal errors in the court’s decision.

The Bad Boy Records founder, 54, was arrested last month on charges of racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.

Though he pleaded not guilty, he was denied bail and remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

Prosecutors were worried Combs would intimidate witnesses and obstruct the case if he were to be let out of jail. They also suggested he was a flight risk given his wealth and access to private planes.

The hip-hop star was even willing to pay up to $50 million as bond; rather than cash, he offered his $48-million Miami mansion as well as his mother’s home as collateral.

Furthermore, Combs told the judge he was willing to wear a GPS monitor and promised to limit his travel to Miami and New York.

His lawyers went on to claim that he was in the process of selling his plane, which is reportedly stationed in Los Angeles.

The defense argued in its appeal that the government has failed to provide clear and convincing evidence that Combs poses a danger to the community or has engaged in witness tampering, calling the claims “vague and speculative.”

His attorneys went on to insist that the district court made a legal error by “hastily ruling without adequate factual findings or substantive analysis,” which they claim led to “an improper denial of bail.”

Combs’ legal team argued that they presented “a robust bail package” that included home detention with GPS monitoring, no access to the internet or phones and 24/7 supervision.

The lawyers claimed in their appeal that Combs has sold his private jet, insisting that all of the above “demonstrates his commitment to proving his innocence and contesting the charges.”

According to the indictment, federal agents discovered more than 1,000 bottles of lubricant, various narcotics and three AR-15s when they raided his LA and Miami mansions in March.

Prosecutors claimed the father of seven “abused, threatened and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his conduct” for decades, “creating a criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in … sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice.”

Per the indictment, Combs and members of his Combs Enterprise allegedly facilitated multiple “Freak Offs”: drug-fueled sex gatherings.

During these events, he allegedly “hit, kicked, threw objects at and dragged victims, at times, by their hair,” according to the indictment, which further claimed that he “subjected victims to physical, emotional and verbal abuse to cause the victims to engage in Freak Offs,” which he “often electronically recorded.”

The alleged assaults “often resulted in injuries that took days or weeks to heal,” per prosecutors.

If convicted, Combs faces a minimum of 15 years in prison.
