Singer Chris Brown is going to trial again.

ABC News reported that the 25-year-old singer rejected a deal to plead guilty, offered to him by prosecutor Kevin Chambers, concerning his Washington, D.C. assault case. The talks for Brown's deal reportedly fell apart when prosecutors and defense attorneys were unable to agree on what happened the night of his arrest.

"They wanted him to read from a script that wasn't true," Brown's attorney Mark Geragos said after the hearing, according to E! News. "If they want a trial, that's what they'll get."

Brown was arrested in October and charged with misdemeanor assault after a man accused the singer of hitting him when he tried to get in a photograph Brown was taking with two women outside a Washington hotel. Prosecutors want Brown to "accept responsibility," said a source inside the courtroom.

At the time of his arrest, the R&B singer was on probation in California for a 2009 attack on singer and former girlfriend Rihanna. The subsequent arrest violated the singer's probation. 

Geragos said that since the plea deal did not include additional jail time for Brown, it "ought to tell you what this case is worth," and added that the misdemeanor case has already cost taxpayers thousands of dollars to prosecute.

Brown's bodyguard, Christopher Hollosy, was also charged in the Washington attack. Hollosy was convicted of misdemeanor assault in April but has not yet been sentenced. 

Brown's trial has been scheduled for Sept. 8.
