Excerpt:
With this week’s court filings, Danny Masterson’s legal team is now pursuing two separate strategies for trying to reverse his 2023 conviction.
He submitted an “Appellant’s Reply Brief” to complete the briefing on his direct appeal, which has largely focused on questioning the testimony of the Jane Doe victims.
But he also filed this week a habeas petition, which claims that there is evidence that was not submitted during his trial which should be taken into consideration.
Both approaches, the direct appeal and the habeas petition, are being considered by the same court, the 2nd Appellate District of California’s appellate courts.
