Adnan Syed's legal team appeals to Maryland Supreme Court over vacated murder conviction.

TL;DR Summary
Adnan Syed, who spent over two decades in prison for the murder of his ex-girlfriend Hae Min Lee, has asked the Maryland Supreme Court to review a lower court's decision that reversed his vacated conviction. Syed's attorneys argue that Lee's brother had confirmed he would attend the hearing via Zoom, but a state appellate court reinstated Syed's conviction after ruling that a lower court had violated the rights of Lee's brother to attend the hearing. Syed's attorney hopes that the Supreme Court will consider the broader implications of the case for the legal system.
