Last month an arrest warrant was issued for rapper Sean Kingston after he repeatedly failed to show up in court regrading a $44k jewelry debt [click here if you missed that].
Now Sean is requesting a new trial...
According to reports Sean Kingston claims he didn't know about his court case because he mistook the notice for a different case and ignored it.
He also claims to have returned some of the jewelry and attempted to make a payment plan, which the jeweler denies.
Kingston is representing himself and asked for leniency due to health issues and a recent robbery and assault.
The ruling is pending.
