Bill Cosby has been ordered under house arrest following his guilty verdict. He must wear a GPS tracker and cannot leave his Philadelphia home.

On April 26, the actor was found guilty on three counts of aggravated indecent assault by the jury. Judge Steven O’Neill ruled that Cosby must wear a GPS ankle bracelet and that he cannot leave his house. He may only leave to meet with lawyers or doctors, but needs permission before doing so.

According to Billboard, Cosby’s defense team is now working on an appeal.
