Lori Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, asked a judge on Friday to accept their not guilty pleas to bribery charges in the college admissions scandal, according to court documents filed in Boston federal court on Friday.

Loughlin and Giannulli were among 11 parents charged with bribery in the scandal in October. The new charge only applied to parents who had already pleaded not guilty.

Giannulli and Loughlin had already pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit money laundering, conspiracy to commit mail fraud, and honest services mail fraud.

The couple also asked the judge to waive their need to appear in court on November 20 for an arraignment on the new charge.

Loughlin and Giannulli are accused of paying the scheme's ringleader, Rick Singer, $500,000 to guarantee their daughters' admissions to the University of Southern California as purported coxswains for the crew team.

Their daughters are no longer enrolled at USC.

Loughlin and Giannulli are among more than 30 parents who have been charged in the scandal.

Felicity Huffman, who pleaded guilty to paying $15,000 to have her daughter's SAT answers falsified as part of the scheme, was sentenced 14 days in prison. She served 11 days.

If Loughlin and Giannulli are convicted, they will face up to 50 years in prison for the crimes.
