Back in June it was revealed that royalties from R. Kelly's music would be awarded to his victims after he was convicted on trafficking charges [click here if you missed that].
The judge just signed off on the garnishment order...
From TMZ
According to docs, obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, a judge signed an order garnishing the embattled singer's royalties ... as it was discovered Universal Music Group is holding a bunch of his royalties.
So, the company will now cut a check to cover Kelly’s restitution bill.
The order says Kelly's outstanding restitution balance is $506,950.26, and UMG just so happens to be sitting on 567,444.19 of his royalties -- more than enough to settle the debt.
