Anthony was convicted of lying to a detective when she said she left Caylee on or about June 9, , with a nanny named Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez at the Sawgrass Apartments in Orlando. She was also convicted of lying when she claimed she was employed at Universal Studios, had told Universal co-workers that Caylee was missing, and later received a phone call from Caylee.
Anthony was nowhere to be seen Tuesday, when her lawyers entered a Daytona Beach, Fla. A three-judge appellate panel did not rule Tuesday and didn't specify when a decision would come down, the Orlando Sentinel reported.
