ATLANTA (WANF/Gray News) – Reality television personality Julie Chrisley is heading back to the courthouse.
A federal judge set a new date for Chrisley’s resentencing for Sept. 25 in Atlanta.
In 2022, Chrisley and her husband Todd were found guilty of “conspiring to defraud banks and the IRS out of millions of dollars.”
An appeals court vacated Chrisley’s fraud sentence last month.
The appeals court held “the district court erred in holding Julie Chrisley responsible for losses incurred in 2006 without explaining its basis for doing so.”
According to the appeals court, the district provided evidence that Chrisley was involved in the scheme beginning in 2007, but did not present evidence to support the claim that she was involved in 2006.
That lack of evidence changes “what the proper loss amount attributable to Julie is for purposes of the base offense level, restitution, and forfeiture.”
The court upheld her husband’s sentence. He is currently serving 12 years in prison.
