Kroy Biermann Jr., son of Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann, is asking a Georgia judge to release him on bond while his criminal case proceeds.
His lawyers filed documents Wednesday afternoon, arguing he is not a flight risk and has strong community ties.
They highlight his academic achievements and athletic scholarships as evidence of good character.
The teen is described as a high school student in good standing with solid relationships with family, friends, coaches, and teachers.
Biermann Jr. learned of the allegations in April and did not flee the state, according to his attorney.
He also submitted to a polygraph exam, answering two relevant questions, though details are not in the filing.
Request for Confidentiality
He also asks to keep proceedings confidential, noting both he and the alleged victim are juveniles and media attention is intense.
Biermann Jr. was arrested last month after a classmate accused him of sexual assault in a gym changing area.
His mother, Kim Zolciak, has publicly defended him and visited him multiple times in jail.
