Harvey Weinstein s time in custody in California will count toward his New York sentence, officials said.
LOS ANGELES: New York prison officials handed convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein over to California on Tuesday to face additional sexual assault charges, ending the former movie mogul s lengthy fight to delay his extradition. Weinstein, 69, was booked into a downtown Los Angeles jail Tuesday afternoon, records showed. He could be arraigned on 11 sexual assault counts, including four counts of rape, as early as Wednesday morning, according to his LA attorney, Mark Werksman. The district attorney s office had no immediate comment.

NEW YORK: More than a year after Harvey Weinstein s rape conviction, his lawyers are demanding a new trial, arguing in court papers Monday that the landmark #MeToo prosecution that put him behind bars was buoyed by improper rulings from a judge who was cavalier in protecting the disgraced movie mogul s right to a fair trial. In a 166-page brief filed with a state appellate court, Weinstein s lawyers took repeated aim at Manhattan Judge James Burke, arguing that he swayed the trial s outcome with repeated rulings favourable to prosecutors - including a decision allowing additional accusers to testify about allegations that never led to criminal charges.
