Loses appeal

Judgement0 Comments

Cosby’s appeal is dismissed by Montgomery County Judge O’Neill. After O’Neill said in  previous hearing evidence was lacking that Cosby had a promise from a previous district attorney he would never be charged over the encounter with Constand, his lawyers had asked for an appeal to Superior Court. O’Neill:

An immediate appeal from these orders would not materially advance the ultimate termination of the matter.

There is no comment from Cosby’s lawyers.
