Josh Duggar’s Appeal Officially Terminated

The appellate court issued a mandate in Duggar’s case on October 5, which upheld the lower court’s conviction.

“Upon issuance of the mandate, the jurisdiction of the court of appeals over the case terminates, and the district court acquires jurisdiction to implement the mandate,” stated the Court of Appeals on the ruling.

The lower court was then notified of the mandate, squashing any hopes of a new trial for Duggar.
