Appeals Court Denies Simpson New Hearing
A state appeals court that threw out a judge’s decision granting O.J. Simpson full custody of his two children has denied the former football star’s request for another hearing on the matter.
The order by the 4th District Court of Appeal leaves unchanged a judgment that reopens the legal battle between Simpson and his former in-laws, Louis and Juditha Brown.
In a decision last month, the court ruled that Orange County Superior Court Judge Nancy Wieben Stock erred by preventing the Browns from introducing evidence suggesting that Simpson killed their daughter, Nicole Brown Simpson.
Simpson can appeal the decision to the California Supreme Court.
