What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
In an 89-page ruling filed in the California court of appeal on Tuesday, a three-judge panel rejected Masterson’s arguments, finding that Olmedo’s statements during the trial showed “no animus or departure from neutrality regarding Scientology”.
Masterson’s appellate lawyers, Cliff Gardner and Eric Multhaup, told Variety that they will appeal to the California Supreme Court, while also pursuing a separate habeas petition.
