Kenneth Petty, Nicki Minaj's husband, is yet to find out in March if he will be sent back to prison.

A bargain with prosecutors has allowed Petty to postpone his sentence from January 24 until March 30, 2021, Radar reports.

With the help of the federal authorities in March, Petty worked out a plea agreement in his federal sex offender case. Prosecutors decided to suggest a lesser sentence after he submitted a not guilty plea.

Prior to sentence, Petty reveals that he intends to submit an expert report to argue that he should not be jailed. Despite a mandated minimum sentence of five years supervised release, the husband of Nicki Minaj is still at risk of going to prison.

Petty claims that his expert needs more time to do the study.

When Petty's criminal trial was adjourned until March, a federal judge approved off on Petty's motion. Convicted felon will also be able to spend Valentine's Day with Nicki Minaj before he learns his fate in court.

When Petty and Minaj relocated from New York to California, he was prosecuted with failing to register as an unregistered sex offender. Due to a 1995 attempted rape conviction, Petty was ordered by the court to register when he relocates. Both he and the claimed victim were 16 at the time of their arrests.

Prosecutors said he forced the girl to have intercourse with him by using a sharp weapon. He was sentenced to four years in jail.

When Minaj allegedly offered to pay Hough a settlement to back out, she says she rejected it down.
