A lawyer for Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi lodged the notice of intention to appeal at the Scottish High Court in Edinburgh, the Scottish Courts Service said.

Al-Megrahi, 48, was sentenced to life in prison Jan. 31 for his part in the bombing of a New York-bound flight which exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland on Dec. 21, 1988.
