Julie Chrisley Ordered to Attend Resentencing In-Person as Judge Denies Plea to Avoid Being Shackled

A federal judge ordered Julie Chrisley to appear in-person at her upcoming resentencing, despite the reality star complaining she’d have to be shackled for hours to get to court, In Touch can report.

According to court records obtained by In Touch, the judge presiding over the reality star’s criminal case denied her request to attend the upcoming hearing on September 25 via videoconference.

Julie, 51, claimed it would cause her “undue physical harm” if she had to travel from her prison in Oklahoma to the court hearing in Georgia.

Her lawyer said that prison officials would “likely would transfer [Julie] via the transfer facility in Oklahoma City or place her in a van for a lengthy, multiple-hour trip while shackled to facilitate her appearance in court.”

Julie’s lawyer added, “Either option would remove Ms. Chrisley from FMC Lexington for an unnecessarily extend period of time and impose undue physical hardship on her.” She said the prosecutors had not opposed the request.
