KJ Biermann is challenging a judge’s decision to allow prosecutors to conduct forensic interviews with minor children in his ongoing sexual assault case.
The 15-year-old son of Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann filed an appeal Thursday after the Georgia Court of Appeals granted him permission to challenge the decision, according to court documents obtained by Page Six.
The appeal was filed the same day his three younger siblings filed their own separate appeal in the case.
However, court documents did not identify the children prosecutors sought to interview, and it remained unclear whether KJ’s siblings were among them or whether their separate call was related to the interviews.
According to the documents, prosecutors filed an emergency motion on September 17 requesting court-ordered forensic interviews with minor children.
A Fulton County Superior Court judge granted the request on Oct. 5, prompting KJ’s attorneys to challenge the decision.
His legal team then requested clarification and reconsideration of the order before asking the Georgia Court of Appeals to intervene.
On November 12, the appeals court allowed KJ to file an interlocutory appeal, allowing him to challenge the judge’s decision before the conclusion of his criminal case.
His attorney, Jason Sheffield, filed the formal notice of appeal later that afternoon.
The filing specifically identified the October order authorizing the interviews, as well as prosecutors’ initial request and the defense’s objections.
However, publicly available documents did not identify the minor children prosecutors sought to question.
Meanwhile, KJ’s three younger siblings also filed a separate appeal through their attorney, Darice Good.
As Page Six previously reported, their appeal did not specify which decision they were challenging.
Both appeals were allowed to move forward, although the Georgia Court of Appeals has not ruled on the underlying disputes.
On Friday, the Clerk of Fulton County Superior Court informed Sheffield that KJ’s notice of appeal needed additional information before court records could be released.
This development occurred as KJ continued to fight seven criminal charges stemming from allegations of sexual battery and sodomy.
The teenager had previously pleaded not guilty to the charges against him and denied the allegations against him.
KJ was previously granted $200,000 bail following his arrest and was released on court-imposed conditions.
The latest development also came as KJ’s older sister Brielle Biermann prepares to marry her fiancé Billy Seidl.
On Thursday, Brielle hinted that her wedding was coming when a fan asked during an Instagram Q&A, “How close are we to the wedding!?”
“Close,” she replied alongside a black-and-white photo of herself and Seidl.
It remains unclear whether KJ would be able to attend the wedding alongside his younger siblings under court-imposed restrictions.
There will be a status hearing for the case on January 20, 2027, at which only attorneys will be required to appear – followed by a final argument on February 10, 2027.
