A Florida judge has officially denied Janice Kingston’s request to appear in court on the same day as her son, singer Sean Kingston. Janice had hoped to align her sentencing with Sean’s, but the court ruled against the motion. Her sentencing remains scheduled for July 11, while Sean’s hearing is set for August.
Both Janice and Sean Kingston are facing serious federal charges and could each serve up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
In the meantime, Sean Kingston has been placed on house arrest, monitored by an ankle bracelet. He was released after posting bond, which included $200,000 in cash and a home valued at $500,000.
