Meek Mill Granted New Hearing in Philadelphia with Superior Court Judges
Written by SOURCE on June 4, 2019
Meek Mill has been granted an appellate court hearing in Philadelphia with the Superior Court, which is set to take place on July 16.
Meek’s lawyers will now have the chance to ask the Pennsylvania Superior Court to overturn the rapper’s original conviction, and not Judge Brinkley, who was previously overseeing his case.
Meek’s attorney, Jordan Siev, told Complex over email, “We’re looking forward to the oral argument before the Superior Court of Pennsylvania and to, hopefully, having Meek’s conviction vacated. In light of the District Attorney’s recent filing, where he supports the granting of a new trial to Meek and the recusal of Judge Brinkley, we hope to have this injustice rectified once and for all.”
