Bankrupt comedian Sinbad has taken a step towards sorting out his financial troubles by passing a court-ordered money management course.

The Jingle All The Way star, real name David Adkins, filed for bankruptcy in April (13) with more than $10 million (£6.5 million) in debts, and he was ordered to take a financial management course as part of the proceedings.

Sinbad has now passed the course, according to Tmz.com, getting him back on track as he attempts to put his money troubles behind him.

The star previously claimed he was unable to pay back his debts as he was left with just $131,000 (£84,516) in assets and couldn't even afford to pay his household bills.
