Sean “Diddy” Combs is appealing against a federal judge’s decision to keep him in jail while he awaits trial on sex trafficking charges.

The hip-hop mogul’s lawyers filed a notice of appeal on Monday in the 2nd US Circuit Court of Appeals after previously saying they would ask the appeals court to overturn Judge Andrew L Carter’s ruling and release him.
