The Nevada Supreme Court isn't going to let O.J. Simpson out of prison while he appeals his conviction in a gunpoint hotel room heist.
A three-judge panel issued orders Friday concluding that Simpson didn't meet the "heavy burden" required to be allowed to post bail.
The justices noted that a jury found Simpson guilty of "serious, nonprobationable, violent offenses" with firearms involved. They also cited a Clark County District Court judge's finding that he posed a flight risk.
Simpson was convicted of kidnapping and robbing two sports memorabilia dealers in September 2007 and is serving nine to 33 years in prison.
