Jailed pedophile Rolf Harris has abandoned his push to appeal 12
convictions for sexually assaulting four girls in the United Kingdom. Harris's
initial application was refused by a single Court of Appeal judge in
late October and the disgraced entertainer is now out of time to ask the
court to revisit the issue.
A Judicial Office spokesman today confirmed to AAP that Harris hadn't renewed his application to appeal "and he is now out of time". The 84-year-old Australian had 28 days to ask for a hearing before three Appeal Court judges but chose not to.
