Did no one notify relatives of the slain Oscar Grant III about former BART cop Johannes Mehserle’s recent appeal to overturn his manslaughter conviction in Grant’s death? That’s what Grant’s mother and uncle tell a news conference in Oakland this morning.

KQED says neither office responded immediately.
