The London, Ont.-born pop star'sattorney presented proofMondaythat Bieberhadcompleted 40 hours of community labour, the final term of hissentence in the misdemeanour case.

A program manager at a homeless shelter where Bieber completedmany of the hours praised Bieber for being willing to get "hishands dirty" by performing maintenance and janitorial work,according to a probation report filedMonday.

Bieber was required to perform community labour, repay around$80,000 in damage to his neighbour's house and undergo angermanagement counselling as part of his sentence.

His progresscompleting work at the homeless shelter was slowed by an ankleinjury, but Bieber has received favourable reports from probationofficials throughout the case.

Bieber was sued earlier this year by Jeff and Suzanne Schwartz,his former neighbours whose Los Angeles county home he damaged in January 2014.
