- Zach Anderson, 19, met girl via online hook-up app, Hot or Not, last year
- On the app, girl said she was 17 years old - however, she was actually 14
- Zach traveled 20 miles from Indiana home to Michigan and slept with her
- Police were forced to charge Zach with criminal sexual conduct due to his victim's age - despite girl admitting to officers she had lied about her age
- Judge Dennis Wiley jailed teen for 90 days for his 'inappropriate' actions
- Now, he is on sex offender registry for 25 years, is banned from using the internet for five years and cannot visit any premises that serve alcohol
- But on Wednesday, Judge Wiley agreed to consider Zach's request to be resentenced following an appeal by his attorneys and a national outcry
- If resentencing is granted, Zach's name could be removed from registry
