CNN —Former Marvel actor Jonathan Majors’ conviction on assault and harassment charges will stand after the judge in the case rejected a bid to set it aside.
The charges stemmed from a domestic dispute involving Majors and his former girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.
Through his attorney, Majors denied the allegations against him in a statement to CNN in August.
Majors’ attorney filed a motion in February asking Judge Michael Gaffey to set aside the verdict and acquit him of the charges.
In a subsequent filing, prosecutors urged the judge to deny Majors’ motion.
