Derrel McDavid on Monday filed an 18-page motion through his attorneys seeking a court order that would grant him the fees following what his attorneys called a “vexatious, frivolous, and bad faith” prosecution of their client.

R. Kelly appears for a hearing at the Leighton Criminal Court Building on Friday, March 22, 2019 in Chicago. on charges he helped rig the R&B singer’s 2008 child pornography trial, is asking a federal judge to award him $850,000 to cover his attorney fees incurred through that case over the past three years.

A 12-person jury in Chicago convicted Kelly last month on multiple child pornography-related charges, finding he sexually abused his 14-year-old goddaughter “Jane” and other minors in the late 1990s and early 2000s. But co-defendants McDavid and Milton “June” Brown were acquitted on conspiracy charges that alleged they’d helped cover up that abuse.

Just as he did at trial, Brindley in the motion attacked the validity of two key government witnesses — Kelly’s ex-girlfriend Lisa Van Allen, and Charles Freeman, a former merchandiser for the singer.
