- Joseph Duggar has pleaded not guilty to Florida charges tied to a 2020 trip and was released on a $600,000 bond, with his lawyer saying he reunited with Kendra without their children.
- Kendra and Joseph also face separate Arkansas counts of endangering the welfare of a minor and false imprisonment after a March 19 home inspection, with a court appearance set for April 29.
