Julie Chrisley's Prison Sentence Thrown Out by Appeals Court

Julie Chrisley's prison sentence was thrown out by an appeals court, ruling that the judge in her 2022 trial miscalculated her sentence.

The judges of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals did not find evidence to prove that Chrisley, 51, was involved in the entire bank fraud scheme, which began in 2006. "After careful consideration, and with the benefit of oral argument, we affirm the district court on all issues except for the loss amount attributed to Julie," the judges stated, per court documents obtained by Us Weekly on Monday, June 24. "The district court did not identify the evidence it relied on to hold Julie accountable for losses incurred before 2007, and we cannot independently find it in the record."

The docs, which were filed on Friday, June 21, continued: "So we vacate Julie's sentence and remand solely for the district court to make the factual findings and calculations necessary to determine loss, restitution, and forfeiture as to Julie and to resentence her accordingly."
