Julie Chrisley ordered to appear at resentencing hearing in person in September… after a judge DENIED her request to attend virtually

Julie Chrisley has been ordered to appear in person at an upcoming sentencing hearing after requesting to attend virtually.

The 51-year-old reality star made headlines in June when her seven-year prison sentence for bank fraud and tax evasion charges was overturned.

Her husband Todd Chrisley was sentenced to 12 years in prison, but his wife Julie may now be released much sooner.

Julie’s attorneys requested a virtual appearance for “an unnecessarily long period of time and the imposition of undue physical hardship,” via Atlanta’s WSB-TV.

She is currently being held at the Lexington FMC in Kentucky and must now travel to Atlanta for the hearing.

“Because Ms. Chrisley is currently in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) outside the State of Georgia, BOP would likely transfer her through the Oklahoma City Transfer Facility or place her in a van for a long, multi-hour trip, handcuffed, to facilitate her appearance in court,” a document from Chrisley’s legal team reads.

The judge denied the request and ordered her to appear in person at the hearing, which was scheduled for September 25.

Her husband Todd had his sentence reduced to 10 years, while Julie’s was shortened by 14 months.

However, in June, a judge ruled that Julie’s prison sentence should be revoked because the previous judge had miscalculated her sentence.

“After careful consideration and oral argument, we affirm the district court’s judgment on all counts except as to the amount of damages attributed to Julie,” the judge said in June.

“The court has not indicated on what evidence Julie is held responsible for losses incurred prior to 2007, nor can we independently find this in the file,” the judge said in a statement.

The case was remanded to the lower court so they could:condemn her accordingly.’

“The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals overturned Ms. Chrisley’s conviction and remanded the case for resentencing,” Julie’s legal team said in their statement.

Chrisley’s family said in their own statement that they remain positive about the new sentencing

While this does not mean the case against her will be dismissed, it will result in [a] “A new sentence in accordance with the instructions of the Court of Appeal,” they added.

Chrisley’s family said in a statement that they remain positive about the new sentence.

“We are pleased that the court decided that Julie’s sentence was unjust, but we are obviously disappointed that the court denied Todd’s appeal,” Alex Little, a lawyer for the family, said in a statement.

“Now that we have completed this step, we can challenge the couple’s convictions based on the illegal search that began the case,” the lawyer added.
