Laura Hall's attorney Joe James Sawyer filed a motion for a new trial in Travis County Friday.

The motion lists reasons including prosecution witness Douglas Conley not being able to pick Hall out of a photo line up and inconsistent testimony from a witness who also testified in the Colton Pitonyak trail.

Earlier this month, Hall was sentenced to five years in prison for her role in the 2005 murder of Jennifer Cave.

The 24-year-old was convicted of tampering with evidence by destroying or altering a human body and a misdemeanor count of attempting to hinder apprehension.

Cave was found dead in Colton Pitonyak's West Campus apartment.

Pitonyak's trial was earlier this year. He's serving a 55-year sentence for the murder.
