The Maryland Special Court of Appeals has upheld a lower court ruling overturning Adnan Syed's conviction for murder and ordering a new trial. The first season of the popular podcast Serial featured Mr. Syed's trial, conviction, and appeals over the 1999 murder of his classmate and former girlfriend Hae Min Lee. The podcast focused a great deal of attention on the case.
The government could still decide to appeal the latest ruling.
