Harvey Weinstein's 2020 conviction on rape charges has been overturned by the State of New York Court of Appeals, leading to a new trial.
The court determined that the judge who oversaw the case of the disgraced movie mogul had erred in allowing prosecutors to bring in witnesses whose allegations were not connected to the charges against him, as per the 4-3 ruling. The official decision was made public on Thursday morning.
This is a developing news story and will be updated.
