On appeal at the Nevada Supreme Court (see link http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_oj_simpson for details), OJ's fellow felon CJ Stewart has a compelling argument.: by being tried alongside OJ, instead of via a separate trial, his defense was hopelessly prejudiced.  Here is the key proposition made by Stewart's attorney, referring to defendent Simpson:
