LONG AWAITED PHIL SPECTOR OPENING BRIEF ON APPEAL FILED

Appellate attorney Dennis P. Riordan confers with his client

*****BREAKING NEWS*****

March 10, 2010

Imprisoned music producer Phillip Spector has just filed his long awaited Opening Brief on Appeal (“AOB”)—all 164 pages of it!

This brief is the foundation for the music producer’s bid for a reversal of his second degree murder conviction and for a new trial.

We are reading and analyzing Spector’s AOB as we speak, and we will be posting our analysis early next week.

Many thanks to top notch Phillip Spector appellate counsel Dennis P. Riordan, who was kind enough to provide us with an electronic copy of the AOB for our review. (It is always a treat to read a brief filed by the venerable Riordan & Horgan.)

We note from the cover page of the AOB that Mr. Riordan’s co-counsel in the matter is famed criminal appellate attorney Chuck Savilla of San Diego, California.

Now that is an appellate dream team!

Stay tuned, because from here on out it gets very interesting.
