 SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - A lawyer for former Stanford University swimmer
 Brock Turner argued Tuesday that his client's attempted rape conviction
 should be overturned. Turner never intended to rape an unconscious woman,
 he said.

 Eric Malthaup told a California appeals court in San Jose that Turner had
 his clothes on when he was discovered by two Swedish graduate students on
 top of a half-naked, intoxicated woman, the Mercury News reported .

 But the poker-faced justices appeared skeptical of his argument. The panel
 has 90 days to issue a ruling.

 half his term. Former Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner's lawyer

 "I absolutely don't understand what you are talking about," Justice
 Franklin D. Elia said, adding that the law "requires the jury verdict to
 be honored."

 Assistant Attorney General Alisha Carlile argued that Multhaup had
 presented a "far-fetched version of events" that didn't support the facts
 of the case.

 Turner was convicted of sexually assaulting an intoxicated woman outside
 an on-campus fraternity house in 2015. After a trial in June 2016, a jury
 convicted Turner of sexual assault, and Judge Aaron Persky sentenced him
 to six months in jail.

 The sentence was widely criticized as too lenient.

 After the victim's 7,200-word letter to Turner that she read in the
 courtroom during sentencing was published online, the case drew national
 outrage. The case exploded on social media and ignited a debate about
 campus rape and the criminal justice system.

 "I want to show people that one night of drinking can ruin two lives," she
 wrote. "You and me. You are the cause, I am the effect."

 Santa Clara County voters recalled Persky in June after a campaign to
 unseat him raised more than $2 million in nationwide contributions.
 Critics of the judge and the sentence said Turner's short jail term
 underscored how law enforcement minimized sexual assault and highlighted
 how privileged defendants who can afford private attorneys often fare
 better in court.

 Turner, 22, lives outside of Dayton, Ohio, with his parents. He is
 required to register as a sex offender for life.

 whether to oust Persky for his handling of a sexual assault case involving
 Stanford swimmer Brock Turner. Former Stanford University swimmer Brock
