third time refused to release former HealthSouth CEO Richard
Scrushy from prison while his conviction is being appealed.
The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a decision made
public Wednesday, ruled that it was denying Scrushy's request for
an appeal bond because the former CEO had not proven he is not a
flight risk.
Scrushy's attorneys have argued that following a hearing last
year a federal magistrate found that Scrushy was not a flight risk.
But a judge later held that he was.
Scrushy and former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman were convicted in
2006 of bribery and other charges in a government corruption case.
The 11th Circuit in March ordered Siegelman released from a
Louisiana federal prison on appeal bond.
