Charles Randolph Thomas' appeal argued that statements made by the victim to several people shortly after she was shot - which implicated him - should not have been admitted into evidence at his trial.
The victim was Thomas' ex-wife, Annette Thomas, who died several days after she was shot at her Commerce home two years ago.
The Supreme Court's ruling rejecting the appeal was unanimous.
