As previously reported, The Game was hit with three felony charges; stemming from an incident that happened in February of 2007 in which the rapper was charged with possession of a firearm in a school zone, exhibiting a firearm on the grounds of a facility for minors and making criminal threats.

After pleading not guilty in June, The Game appeared in court today (Jan. 9) where a trial date was set for February 4th. If convicted the Compton rapper faces up to 5 years in prison.

On top of the weapons case trial, The Game’s lawyer claims the LAPD confiscated $44k during the investigation and have refused to release it.
According to TMZ, a hearing is scheduled on January 22nd to determine if the LAPD is in contempt of court for failing to return the confiscated money.
