DETROIT (WWJ) -- Disgraced former mayor of Detroit, Kwame Kilpatrick, appears to have struck a deal with federal prosecutors regarding money he owes the city.
Federal court records show Kilpatrick has agreed to pay at total of $823,000 in restitution to the City of Detroit as part of his 2013 corruption conviction.
WWJ's Charlie Langton reported, Tuesday morning: "They also agree that Kilpatrick has been making restitution payments, that his legislative pension is garnishable, and to agree on a repayment plan."
The court sealed the agreement, so other details are not known.
This latest comes after Kilpatrick, 55, back in December asked a federal judge to terminate his restitution obligation.
At that time, the ex-mayor told the judge, in a 12-page court filing, that denying the request could potentially stymy his professional progress and ability to earn adequate income for his family; as well as have a chilling effect for those whom he mentors, counsel and teach how to be law-abiding citizens.
Kilpatrick was convicted on conspiracy, extortion and other corruption-related charges in 2013, and served eight years in federal prison on a 28-year sentence.
In January of 2021, President Donald Trump commuted Kilpatrick's prison sentence, but left the restitution obligation alone.
