Siegelman Asks Appeals Court To Dismiss
Charges
by Bob Johnson for Associated Press
Siegelman's attorneys argued in the brief to the 11th Circuit that most of
the case against Siegelman was based on the "honest services" law and
that jurors may have been influenced by that law when considering
other charges.
In a separate brief, Scrushy's attorneys argued that the Supreme
Court's decision in the Skilling case "requires reversal of the conspiracy
and honest service bribery charges" against Scrushy. Scrushy's
attorneys argue that at the least their client should be granted a new
trial.
Scrushy's brief argues that his campaign contribution to Siegelman was
not a bribe.
"Siegelman was not paid anything," the filing said.
