Harvey Weinstein is set to appear in court as a judge decides on the start date and scope of his #MeToo retrial. The 72-year-old movie mogul is seeking to have an additional charge dismissed, arguing that it was brought solely to strengthen the case against him after his 2020 conviction was overturned by New York's highest court.
The judge, Curtis Farber, will also determine the trial date, which has been complicated by a busy court calendar. Weinstein's lawyer is concurrently involved in another high-profile trial, further complicating scheduling.
