• Sean 'Diddy' Combs intends to appeal his conviction and 50-month prison sentence.
• Combs was found guilty of two prostitution-related counts but acquitted of more severe charges.
• The appeal notice was filed on October 20 in the Federal District Court of New York.
• Combs expressed remorse during sentencing, describing his actions as "disgusting" and "shameful".
• His legal team argues that the statutes used for conviction do not apply in this case.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' legal team has formally notified a federal court of their intention to appeal his recent conviction and 50-month prison sentence related to prostitution charges. This notification was filed on October 20 in the Federal District Court of New York, but the specific grounds for the appeal have yet to be disclosed, according to ABC News and India Times.

Combs was convicted of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution following a high-profile trial that lasted nearly two months. He was acquitted on more serious charges of sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy. His attorney, Alexandra Shapiro, emphasized that the law under which Combs was convicted does not apply to his situation, as reported by India Times and BBC.

During his sentencing, Combs broke down in court and apologized for his actions, labeling them "disgusting" and "shameful". He requested a lighter sentence of 14 months but was ultimately sentenced to over four years in prison, as federal prosecutors had sought a minimum of 11 years. This appeal will challenge both the conviction and the length of the sentence, according to ABC News, India Times, and BBC.
