Widmer already has an appeal pending before the 12th District Court, asking the judges there to throw out his conviction and grant him a new trial.
“I’m going to request that the appellate court consolidate the two appeals so that when we eventually have an oral argument, we can address all the claims at the same time,” she said.
Widmer is serving 15 years to life for drowning his wife, Sarah Widmer, in the bathtub of their Warren County home in August 2008.
The appeals court recently gave prosecutors an extension to filed an answer to the first appeal. Prosecutor David Fornshell could not immediately be reached for comment.
