A judge has tentatively scheduled Harvey Weinstein’s planned retrial on rape and sexual assault charges to begin on Nov. 12. Weinstein wore an American flag pin on his jacket during a brief court appearance in Manhattan on Friday. The former Hollywood mogul’s pretrial hearing was scheduled to address issues related to evidence in the case, including text messages. New York’s highest court threw out Weinstein’s 2020 conviction earlier this year. Weinstein has denied any wrongdoing. At a hearing last week, prosecutors told Judge Curtis Farber that they were still actively pursuing new claims against Weinstein, though they conceded that they hadn’t yet brought any findings to a grand jury.
