Arias Motion For Stay Denied, Petition For Review Remains Undecided

BREAKING:  The Arizona State Supreme Court denies Jodi Arias' attorney's motion to stay any death penalty proceedings immediately after a conviction.  Arias' attorney argued that Mesa Det. Esteban Flores lied about the aggravating factor that would make Arias death penalty eligible. 
Court Spokeswoman Jennifer Liewer says a decision on the petition for review "will come at a later date."  See the order here:
