Tooth Decay Delayed Lil Wayne's Jail Sentence

So it seems your boy Lil Wayne won't start his jail sentence today as planned. It has been reported by MTV.com that he had to have some sort of dental surgery. His oral surgery is scheduled for Friday, but he won't have to face the judge again until March 2nd. He was scheduled to be formally sentenced to a year in prison today for illegally being in possession of a loaded gun.

Find out how MTV.com are describing the situation and "Farewell Video" for his fans after the jump.

NEW YORK — Lil Wayne’s sentencing has been delayed until March 2 due to dental surgery, his attorney announced in a Manhattan courtroom Tuesday (February 9).The rapper was scheduled to be formally sentenced by a judge and begin serving his one-year term stemming from a 2007 arrest that resulted in a guilty plea in October for attempted weapons possession.

The Cash Money MC arrived shortly after 2 p.m. with his label heads Birdman and Slim. He quietly entered the courtroom as photographers snapped pictures from the hallway. Wayne wore a navy coat and black-framed glasses, and he sat still while his lawyer Stacey Richman spoke. She informed the judge that she sent a notification to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office that the rapper is suffering from a cracked tooth and would need to postpone his sentence. The judge agreed and ruled to reschedule for March 2.

The rapper is set to undergo surgery February 12 in Miami, according to Richman. He will need a week to 10 days to recover. His defense offered prosecutors February 25 as a date for Wayne to turn himself him in after surgery, but Judge Charles H. Solomon instead selected March 2.

So there you have it...
