    ( NewsNation ) — Sean “Diddy” Combs has filed his third appeal, asking to be released on bond in his sex abuse case as he awaits trial.

    In new legal documents, obtained by NewsNation, Combs’ legal team argues the music mogul poses “no conceivable flight risk.”

    Combs was arrested Sept, 16 , and his grand jury indictment was unsealed the next day. Combs has denied all the allegations. He is being held in custody after already being denied bail twice.

    Lawyers for Combs previously offered a new judge a $50 million bail package that included GPS monitoring and strict limitations on visitors. That package was rejected by U.S. District Judge Andrew L. Carter, who ruled Combs’ plan was “insufficient” to ensure the safety of the community and the integrity of his case.

    Carter concurred with prosecutors who found that “no condition or set of conditions” governing his release could guard against the risk of Combs threatening or harming witnesses — one of the other central charges in his case.

    On Sept.3 0, NewsNation learned Combs made two additions to his legal team: powerhouse attorneys Anthony Ricco and Alexandra Shapiro.
