Doherty is the lead singer of Babyshambles
Singer Pete Doherty is due in court to face sentencing for drug and motoring offences.
He has pleaded guilty driving illegally while in possession of crack cocaine, heroin, ketamine and cannabis in Kensington, west London, on 5 May.
The Babyshambles frontman was warned he could face a jail term.
Judge Davinder Lachlar said in August that he would consider the matter for a number of weeks to "assess his motivation".
"What I have in mind is a community order or prison. If he does not show his motivation, it's prison - it's as simple as that," he said.
Other charges dropped
He was due to be sentenced last month but that hearing was adjourned after he failed to appear in court due to receiving treatment at a rehabilitation clinic.
On 21 August, further charges against Doherty relating to him breaking the terms of his bail conditions were dropped by a court.
He was held by police in east London after performing at the V Festival, but the 24-hour limit for bringing the charges to court was exceeded.
Doherty will be sentenced at West London Magistrates' Court.
