The Lansing State Journal reported that attorneys for the former doctor for Michigan State University and Indianapolis-based USA Gymnastics filed a motion in Eaton County Circuit Court in Charlotte, Michigan, seeking a new judge and sentencing hearing for Nassar on three sexual assault charges he pleaded guilty to in November.
They recently made a similar request in a separate case in Ingham County, where dozens of Nassar’s accusers spoke during a televised sentencing earlier this year of the harm he caused them. The judges in both cases sentenced Nassar to a minimum of 40 years behind bars.
Nassar also has a pending appeal of his 60-year federal prison sentence for possessing child pornography.
