Julie Chrisley asks judge if she can appear in ‘civilian clothing’ for resentencing

Atlanta, GALocal News

Julie Chrisley is seeking approval from a federal judge to appear in civilian clothing instead of a prison jumpsuit during her resentencing hearing set for next week. Her attorney filed the motion, although a ruling from the judge is still pending. This request comes after an appeals court judge vacated her previous sentence related to a 2022 fraud conviction, in which she and her husband Todd were both implicated. While Julie's sentence has been overturned, Todd's 12-year sentence remains intact, highlighting the differing outcomes for the couple. The Chrisleys gained significant public attention through their reality television series, which has kept their legal troubles in the spotlight.

The upcoming hearing will determine the new terms of Julie’s sentence, which could have lasting implications for her life and career. The case continues to draw media coverage and public interest due to the dramatic twists and turns involved. Observers are closely watching to see how the court will respond to Julie's request and what the final outcome will be for both her and Todd.
