An appeals court in New York has upheld MARTHA STEWART's stocks fraud conviction after her legal team fought to have the decision to send the US lifestyle queen to jail ruled incorrect.
Stewart served five months in prison and five months on home arrest in 2004 and 2005.
Her lawyers appealed hoping to have her vindicated but yesterday (06JAN06) the court said the defence did not give enough basis to overturn the conviction.
