Blagojevich Appeal Won't Be Heard

The Supreme Court has decided not to hear the appeal of former Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

 

A federal appeals court threw out five of his 18 corruption convictions in July and Blagojevich was asking the high court to consider tossing the rest. Springfield Attorney Jon Gray Noll was hopeful they would take on the issue.

 

 

Noll doesn't believe Blagojevich's resentencing will have little impact on his 14 year prison term.

 

 

Blagojevich has completed 4 years of that extended term.
