Prosecutors in Las Vegas say Simpson got a fair trial in a hotel room confrontation over sports memorabilia, and the evidence supporting his 2008 conviction and imprisonment on kidnapping and armed robbery charges is overwhelming. He has served more than six years of a 9-to-33 year Nevada prison sentence, and isn't eligible for parole until 2017. Simpson lawyers didn't immediately respond Tuesday, Sept. 30, 2014 to messages.

The 69-year-old was convicted in 2008 for an armed robbery of sports memorabilia dealers in Las Vegas and was paroled (but not released) on some charges in 2013.

These charges were unrelated to the infamous 1995 case, when he was acquitted for the murders of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman.
