Dr. Conrad Murray has just filed legal docs asking a judge to release him from jail pending appeal.
Murray claims in his legal docs he has a legitimate basis to appeal his manslaughter conviction. Among the grounds for appeal -- "improper exclusion of defense evidence and witnesses that resulted in violating the defendant's State and constitutional rights to due process, to present a defense and to the effective assistance of counsel."
Murray's lawyer also says, "He has exhausted virtually all of his available resources."
Murray is asking to be released on no bail pending the appeal.
If released, Murray says he plans to live with his baby mama Nicole Alvarez -- and would be willing to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet.
Murray says he would also seek employment to support his children -- though it's unclear what work that would entail ... considering his medical license has been unceremoniously revoked.
To illustrate his dire circumstances behind bars, Murray's lawyer says the ex-doctor is housed under "maximum security" conditions -- isolated in a solitary cell, and escorted around the jail facility with his hands chained to his waist.

I think thats reasonable, he has been locked up long enough.
Surrrre. MJ can get out of his casket, then let him outof jail. If not, go directly to jail and stay there.
Yeah right Murray with no bail huh? You are a convicted felon do your time and shut up.
Peace.
That guy's got a lot of stones. He should shut up and do his time like a man. I think he got off easy considering.
He shouldn't be in there at all. He did what M freakin' J wanted. A lot of addictions there!
Conrad Murray seems to be rather narcissistic and delusional. No wonder he thought he was God when he was administering to Michael Jackson.
THAT'S A LAME ASS EXCUSE THAT HE DID WHAT MJ WANTED!!!
THE "QUACK" WAS THE DOCTOR WHO WAS IN CHARGE!!!!
PLAIN AND SIMPLE!!!!
Contrary to public opinion, I say LET THE GUY GO!
Murray has been the Jackson Family's scapegoat from day one. If they can blame him, they don't have to blame themselves for sitting idly by and leeching MJ's money while watching him self destruct.
Ruining Murray's life will do nothing to bring the guy back.
Dude played monopoly... and landed in JAIL. STFU already and do the time like all murderers. Here's a compromise - if he can prove MJ's death was fake and he's actually living in some hovel with Elvis overseas, we'll let him go. Point blank, period. Ball is in Murray's court. #Truth!!
Employment? Ha ha ha ha ha
The only things Murray is qualified for are killing people and being a pimp.
