Harvey Weinstein: 1 sexual assault count dismissed, for now
Poll
Midway
LOS ANGELES (AP) – A Los Angeles judge on Thursday dismissed one of 11 sexual assault counts against Harvey Weinstein, giving the former movie mogul and convicted rapist a minor and possibly temporary victory.
At a hearing with the 69-year-old Weinstein in the courtroom, Judge Lisa B. Lench agreed with his defense attorneys that a count alleging sexual battery by restraint in May of 2010 was too old, and outside the statute of limitations.
But she gave the prosecution permission to refile the charge in a way that may be allowable, setting up an ongoing fight.
