A Los Angeles court judge lessened the restraining order to a level one, which allows Brown and Rihanna, 23, to have contact as long as he doesn't harass, annoy or molest her.

Brown received five years' probation last year for the February 2009 felony assault of the Grammy-winning artist. Rihanna was not in court, but a lawyer representing her said she did not contest the new order.
