ATLANTA — Julie Chrisley will not be donning any expensive couture at next week’s resentencing hearing in Atlanta.
The reality TV star had asked a judge on Wednesday if she could appear in ‘civilian clothing’ but that request was quickly denied.
So Chrisley will be appearing in her prison uniform as she awaits to find out if she will be free to go or spend more time in prison.
An appeals court judge vacated Julie’s sentence in June over her 2022 fraud conviction with her husband Todd, whose 12-year sentence was upheld.
On Monday, the government filed its sentencing recommendation for next week’s hearing, telling the judge in the case that Julie Chrisley should still serve the seven years that she was sentenced to originally.
Julie’s resentencing hearing is scheduled for next Wednesday.

Todd and Julie Chrisley, mostly known for their reality TV series “Chrisley Knows Best,” and Peter Tarantino, their accountant, were found guilty in 2022 of conspiring to defraud banks and the IRS out of millions of dollars and are serving a combined 15 years in prison.
The Chrisleys were originally sentenced to a combined 19 years in prison.
A federal judge ruled that Julie must appear for her resentencing in person after asking to do it remotely. She is currently in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service as she gets ready for next week’s hearing.
Channel 2 Action News first started investigating the Chrisleys in 2017, when we learned that Todd Chrisley had likely evaded paying Georgia state income taxes for several years.
Court documents obtained by Channel 2 Action News showed that by 2018, the Chrisleys owed the state nearly $800,000 in liens.
The couple eventually went to trial and a federal jury found them guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion.
