- Panel of three justices denies Hall of Fame quarterback’s appeal
- Favre, 53, has not been charged with any criminal wrongdoing
The Mississippi supreme court says it will not remove NFL Hall of Famer Brett Favre as a defendant in a civil lawsuit that seeks to recover millions of dollars of misspent welfare money meant to help some of the poorest people in the United States.
A panel of three justices issued a brief ruling on Wednesday, denying an appeal from Favre.
