Lawyers for Tony Rezko filed papers in court on Friday asking a Federal judge to overturn Rezko's conviction on the grounds that the testimony of Stuart Levine was "unreliable." Said Rezko attorney Mariah Moran: "The court should order a new trial on the ground that the record in this case, polluted as it is by the inherently unreliable testimony of Levine, leaves such a strong doubt as to Rezko's guilt that it would be a miscarriage of justice to let the verdict stand."
