Teresa Giudice’s lawyer, James Leonard, addressed the Real Housewives of New Jersey star’s potential parole violations in a recent statement. According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Giudice — who completed an 11-month jail sentence for fraud in December 2015 — did not let her probation officer know about two different traffic tickets in the required 72-hour period; one for making an illegal turn, and the other for using her phone while driving.
"Both tickets were reported, but not within the required time frame,” Giudice’s lawyer James Leonard told Us Weekly. “Teresa's been fully compliant other than these incidents, and both she and I have spoken to her officer and understand exactly what is required should she have any future contact with law enforcement, which we do not anticipate will happen."
TMZ reports that Giudice, who was given 24 months of supervised probation after her release from prison, received a written warning from her probation officer.
Meanwhile, her husband, Joe Giudice, continues his own 41-month prison sentence for fraud at New Jersey’s Fort Dix Correctional Institution, where he reported in March 2016. He's already had five months taken off his time behind bars.
Teresa is currently busy filming for the upcoming eighth season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey along with sister-in-law Melissa Gorga, and co-stars Dolores Catania and Siggy Flicker, Danielle Staub and rumored newbie Margaret Josephs, which is set to premiere later this year on Bravo.
