Donnelly, a federal district judge for the Eastern District of New York, ruled Friday that the seizure of $27,828 from R. Kelly\u2019s prison account will move forward, <i><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/r-kelly-jail-commissary-account-victims-restitution-1234589605\/\">Rolling Stone<\/a><\/i> and <i><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/pro\/r-kelly-prison-funds-pay-victims-new-york-ruling\/\">Billboard<\/a><\/i> report. $900 of the funds will go to pay a court fine, and the rest of the money will be transferred to an interest-bearing account, where it will stay until the court determines how much restitution each of Kelly\u2019s victims is owed. Once the money is moved, Kelly\u2019s commissary account at Metropolitan Correctional Center, Chicago \u2014 where the 55-year-old ex-R&amp;B star is currently incarcerated \u2014 will contain only $500. <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>            The decision comes after a brief battle with Kelly\u2019s lawyers, who fought the move, arguing that the money was incorrectly confiscated, as the government\u2019s notice of default and restitution was not yet finalized when the funds were initially taken. Judge Donnelly ruled, however, that the prosecutors had the right to freeze Kelly\u2019s cash in order to protect his victims\u2019 rights \u201cto full and timely restitution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>            In June, Judge Donnelly sentenced Kelly to 30 years in prison after his September 2021 conviction on nine counts of sex trafficking and racketeering. His second federal trial began in August in Chicago, where he\u2019s charged with child pornography and obstruction of justice. He also faces two felony counts of sexual misconduct in Minnesota for allegedly \u201cengaging in, hiring, or agreeing to hire a minor to engage in prostitution.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">Raphael Helfand<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
