Todd and Julie Chrisley’s New Attorney Gives Appeal Update

The new attorney for reality stars Todd and Julie Chrisley gave an update on their appeal amid their ⛓️Prison sentences.

Jay Surgent, a partner at Weiner Law Group LLP who specializes in white-collar crime, told People exclusively they are unsure of what the future holds but as of last week, they “did our final filings.” Surgent also gave insight into what could potentially happen during the continuous appeals process for the couple.

“The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals can reverse the District Court, or they could remand the case back for hearings that should have been held that were not held during the course of this trial,” he explained.

Surgent revealed they “argued very vigorously that their constitutional rights have been violated” and claimed the couple “basically were not given a fair hearing.”

“It’s all in black and white, actually,” he added.

Following their report to ⛓️Prison, Todd and Julie Chrisley’s former attorney Alex Little of Burr & Forman LLP spoke to People in November 2022 about their plan to appeal their convictions.

“Yesterday was a difficult day for the Chrisley family. But Todd and Julie are people of faith, and that faith gives them strength as they appeal their convictions,” Little said.
