How Cardi B must finish her community service by March 1

A New York City judge ordered on Tuesday that Grammy Award-winning rapper Cardi B has until March 1 to finish the 15 days of required community service related to a 2018 assault at a strip club.

According to the Queens District Attorney's Office, the judge had requested Cardi B to appear because she had not finished the 15 days of community service required under her plea agreement, and the hearing was a "compliance update."

The "WAP" artist came to the Queens County Criminal Court dressed in a long, white coat and a white form-fitting outfit.

Cardio is committed to philanthropic work, both personally and professionally. As a result, she is grateful that the court has given her until March 1 to finish her community service requirement in Queens, New York, according to a statement from Cardi B's lawyer.

Cardi B, whose real name is Becalms, Almanac, allegedly got into a fight with female bartenders inside a club, according to the police. One of them, she said, had an affair with her husband, fellow rapper Offset.

In order to set a better example for her kids, the 30-year-old musician admitted guilt to two minor assault charges last year after being accused of picking a brawl with two bartenders.

Being responsible for your actions is a necessary part of maturing and growing up, she remarked during her hearing in September.

The 30-year-old WAP, rapper appeared in court on Tuesday in Queens County, New York, where she was granted until March 1 to finish the 15 days of community service that were demanded of her.

In a statement provided to PEOPLE by her lawyer, Cardio was described as "committed to community service and humanitarian efforts, personally and professionally." She is grateful that she has until March 1 to finish her community service requirement in Queens, New York, per the court's order.

Cardio (actual name, becalms) pleaded guilty to two minor charges stemming from the 2018 brawl in September. The actress at the time agreed to a plea deal that included 15 days of community service and a three-year order of protection against the other women engaged in the altercation.

She had to finish her hours by Tuesday, but a representative for the Queens District Attorney told PEOPLE that she has yet to do so.

Cardio had 10 charges dropped in September, but she admitted doing two misdemeanor charges of third-degree assault and reckless endangerment.

"Taking responsibility for your actions is a necessary part of developing and growing up. As a mother, I am attempting to establish this behavior in my kids, but I must set a good example first. In a statement at the time that PEOPLE were able to get, she wrote, I've made some horrible judgements in my past that I'm not scared to face and own up to. "These experiences don't make me who I am, and they don't reflect who I am right now. I'm eager to go through this predicament with my family and friends and return to the activities I cherish the most, the fans,  the music, and me.

According to The New York Times and TMZ, the Grammy-winning diva allegedly ordered an attack on two female bartenders at Angel's Strip Club in August 2018 because she thought her husband, the rapper Offset, had an affair with one of them.
