Kendra Duggar Enters Plea in Child Endangerment Case as No Contact Order Is Lifted

Kendra Duggar has entered a not guilty plea in her child endangerment case.

According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, Kendra, 27, entered the plea on Thursday, Apr. 23, in her case against the State of Arkansas.

Kendra's lawyer also submitted a motion to dissolve the no contact order against her alleged victims on Apr. 17.

Per the documents, the unnamed victims "have expressed a desire to have contact" with Kendra as she "complied" with the order's terms.

Later that day, a judge signed off on the request and dissolved the no contact order.

"It is further ordered that the Arkansas Department of Human Services is authorized to supervise, communicate and facilitate reunification between the Defendant and the individuals previously covered in the no contact order," the judge's ruling read.

Kendra's husband Joseph Duggar was previously arrested and charged for Lewd and Lascivious Behavior, involving unlawful sexual activity with a minor, on Mar. 18.

Two days later, Joseph, 31, and Kendra were hit with additional child endangerment charges-unrelated to Joseph's initial case.

Kendra was released from jail shortly following her arrest after posting a $1,470 bond. Joseph, for his part, was released from custody in Florida after posting a $600,000 bond on Mar. 31.

The couple have been married since 2017 and share four young children.
