Snipes was convicted and sentenced to three years in prison in 2008, but his attorneys asked the 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta to allow a new request to dismiss the movie star's conviction or grant him a new trial.
The motion centers on the arrest of Kenneth Starr, the one-time financial adviser to Snipes and other celebrities.
He was a key witness in Snipes' 2008 trial but was charged in May with securities fraud worth $59 million.
