A Denver federal judge on Thursday denied former Qwest chief executive Joe Nacchio’s request to remain free on bail pending his petition for a Supreme Court review of his insider-trading conviction.
“According to the motion, no petition has yet been filed. Therefore, the motion must be denied as premature,” U.S. District Judge Marcia Krieger wrote in the order.
Nacchio’s attorney, Maureen Mahoney, has said she would file the Supreme Court petition by March 27. Nacchio has been ordered to report to prison March 23.
