Rapper Meek Mill is remaining positive and hopeful for a "fair and balanced" trial after the Pennsylvania Supreme Court instructed his legal team to formally appeal Judge Genece Brinkley's decision. In relation to a long-drawn probation case involving the hip-hop star, Mill's lawyers had earlier appealed to the court, asking for Judge Brinkley to be removed from his case on accounts of biased decisions. 

Although the court has denied the motion to remove the Philadelphia Judge from his case, the rapper - real name Robert Rihmeek Williams - and his team are positive that they now will have a chance to present the most detailed explanation to date as to why Brinkley must be removed. In addition, the attorneys of the rapper believe they will have a chance to return to the Supreme Court and make their case if the superior court rules against Mill.
