AI Summary

A three‑judge panel issued an 89‑page ruling rejecting every argument in Danny Masterson’s appeal, leaving his 30‑year prison term intact. The appeal challenged the trial judge’s alleged bias against Scientology, but the panel found no merit in that claim. Masterson had been accused by three women of raping them at his Hollywood Hills home around 2003; a 2022 trial ended in a hung jury, while a 2023 retrial convicted him on two counts and deadlocked on a third.
