: Breaking Legal NewsCalifornia court denies appeal by Roman Polanski
By (Breaking Legal News)
A California appeals court has denied Roman Polanski's bid to have a special counsel review his decades-old sex case.
Records show the Second District Court of Appeal denied Polanski's petition on Thursday without comment.
The court's decision not to revisit Polanski's case came hours after it denied a request by the Oscar-winning director's victim to have the case dismissed.
Swiss authorities have said they were awaiting the decision by the court on Polanski's appeal before deciding whether to extradite the "Rosemary's Baby" director. He is under house arrest in that country.
Polanski was accused in 1977 of having sex with Samantha Geimer, then 13. He was indicted on six felony counts, but later pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful sexual intercourse.
