New York - US rapper Foxy Brown pleaded not guilty to assault charges in which she is accused of throwing a Blackberry at her New York neighbour, injuring the woman. Brown, 28, whose legal name is Inga Marchand, entered the plea Tuesday and was due to appear in the Brooklyn court again in December, news reports said.

If she is found guilty, Brown, who has had numerous run-ins with the law, could face multiple years in prison.

She was released from jail to attend the court proceedings. She was jailed in September for a year after she was found in violation of her parole for a 2006 guilty plea in the assault of two nail stylists in Manhattan.

In her latest court case, she is accused of attacking her neighbour with the wireless, handheld communications device in July after the woman complained of loud music coming from Brown's car.

The judge on Tuesday reprimanded Brown for missing a court date last week. Newspaper reports said she had refused to leave her cell without makeup and hairstyling, but her attorney John Sampson blamed jail authorities for not putting Brown on a transport list.

The rapper became known for her 1999 album Chyna Doll, whose sales propelled it to the top of the Billboard charts. She has a new album due out in November.
