Keith Urso, the 50-year-old Warren man sentenced to 10 years in prison in November for his 15th drunken-driving conviction, has appealed his sentence.

Urso was convicted during a jury trial before Judge Andrew Logan of Trumbull County Common Pleas Court.

Public defender Atty. Anthony Consoldane filed a notice with the 11th District Court of Appeals stating that grounds for appeal include Judge Logan denying Urso the opportunity to secure the services of an expert witness, and Judge Logan admitting the videotaped testimony of a witness who was not able to come to court to be cross-examined.
