The Supreme Court denied the appeal of ex-Ohio House speaker and lobbyist convictions in a $60 million bribery scheme. The high court's ruling leaves in place a unanimous decision by a three-judge panel of the 6th Circuit. The defendants had appealed to justices after the lower court denied their requests for an en banc hearing before all active judges. The key issues in this case are the appeal and the denial of the appeal. The case type is criminal. The risk assessment is that the denial of the appeal may impact the defendants' sentence and future legal proceedings.
