A Utah lawyer has lost his bid to interview Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols.

The Denver-based 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday reversed a lower court order allowing Jesse Trentadue to interview Nichols and David Paul Hammer, a death row acquaintance of Timothy McVeigh's.

Trentadue said he's trying to learn more about how his brother, Kenneth, died while in federal custody in the months after the 1995 bombing, which killed 168.

The appeals court ruled that the FBI complied with Trentadue's Freedom of Information Act request. The court also said Nichols and Hammer have nothing to do with Trentadue's records request.

Nichols is serving life for conspiracy and involuntary manslaughter. McVeigh was convicted of murder and executed.
