Washington [US], July 30 (ANI): Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein won a partial victory in Los Angeles court on Thursday, persuading a judge to dismiss one of the 11 sexual assault charges against him.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, during 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 the judge allowed prosecutors the opportunity to amend the indictment and refile it. Lench sided with the prosecution on two other counts that she refused to dismiss, rejecting defense arguments those incidents were also too old.
