While Chris Brown continues to wait for the courts to decide his fate, Rihanna needs "evidence" seized in the investigation to be returned. A whopping $1.4 million worth!

According to Associated Press reports, Rihanna is seeking the return of $1.4 million in jewelry she was wearing the night she was allegedly beaten by Chris Brown.

Donald Etra, an attorney for the "Umbrella" singer, filed a motion Tuesday asking that Los Angeles police and prosecutors return a pair of earrings and three rings, which were seized as evidence.

The motion states that Brown's attorney, and a Los Angeles Police Department detective overseeing the case, do not object to the return of the items. They have agreed that photographs can be used if the case goes to trial, the documents state.

The filing includes a general description of the items, saying they all are made of "yellow metal" and all but one includes "white stones." The value of the items is at least $1.4 million, the motion states. It argues that photographs of the items will satisfy the needs of attorneys and asks the court "to order the return of the property to (Rihanna) without further delay."

Hope those jewels haven't grown legs and walked away, cuz you know how the LAPD like to do it! I know y'all saw Training Day .

A spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office said the agency would not comment on the motion. The filing indicates the jewelry was loaned to the singer by four companies, which want the items back. The items are wanted for events overseas, the filing states.

Good luck getting the jewelry back Rihanna! Otherwise some of your Middle East concert money might be going towards replacing those gems.

And it looks like Maxwell is serious about this come back, it's been a long time coming but he's set to premiere his video for "Pretty Wings" on this afternoon's "106 and Park" on BET. Until the video hits the net, this live performance will have to do.
