The appeal, filed earlier this week in the Second Appellate Court in California, says the judge unfairly allowed five women to testify that years before the 2003 shooting, Spector had threatened with them with a gun. The lawyers argue trial judge Larry Fidler made errors with jury instructions, wrongly changed rulings and, importantly, offered his own testimony in Spector’s second trial, which violated state law. Spector, 70, is serving 19 years to life in prison for shooting B-movie actress Lana Clarkson in the mouth on Feb. 3, 2003.
