The Supreme Court won’t review the sexual assault case against Bill Cosby and will leave in place a decision by a lower court that vacated the actor’s 2018 conviction and freed him from prison last year.

The court on March 7 declined (pdf) a request from prosecutors to hear the case to potentially reinstate Cosby’s conviction. No reason was provided.
