According to the Associated Press, a Los Angeles judge granted a delay in West’s case, giving the rapper/producer until May 20 to enter a plea.

He was scheduled to be arraigned on three misdemeanor charges filed as result of a scuffle with a paparazzo at LAX in September 2008, which was caught on film thanks to TMZ.

In TMZ’s clip, West and his road manager Don C were seen grabbing the camera of a TMZ photog and throwing them, while West himself snatched his flash attachment and smashed it on the floor.

West was charged with misdemeanor counts of vandalism, battery and grand theft, while Don C (real name: Don Crowley) was hit with two counts of vandalism, two counts of grand theft and two counts of battery. If convicted on all counts, West could face up to two years and six months in jail, while Crowley could face up to five years in jail.

Both West and Crowley are free without bond, pending their next court date.

West’s attorney, Blair Berk, told a court commissioner that Monday (April 13) was the first time she had been allowed to review the police report and she is waiting for prosecutors to turn over any additional evidence they have.
