NEW YORK — Lil Wayne was finally sentenced Monday to a year in jail after several delays extended his freedom.
In October, the 27-year-old rapper pleaded guilty to felony gun possession in a plea deal with prosecutors. Police stopped the Grammy winner's tour bus in New York City after a concert performance on July 22, 2007, resulting in the discovery of a loaded .40 caliber semi-automatic gun. Authorities later used a DNA profiling technique to tie him to the gun found on the bus.

The 27-year-old rapper's sentencing in a gun case was postponed Tuesday by a basement fire that shut down Manhattan's main criminal courthouse. The hearing has since been rescheduled for Monday, according to MTV News.
This is the second time Lil Wayne has received a temporary reprieve. Last month, the "Lollipop" singer had his sentencing delayed in order to complete a dental surgery procedure before heading to jail.
