Weinstein, 72, wants the extra charge thrown out, arguing through lawyers that Manhattan prosecutors only brought it to bolster their case with a third accuser after New York’s highest courtJudge Curtis Farber is expected to rule on that and other matters, including the trial date — a task that's been complicated by an increasingly crowded court calendar.
Weinstein is being treated for numerous medical conditions, including chronic myeloid leukemia and diabetes. The Manhattan district attorney's office said in court papers that the woman, who has not been identified publicly, came forward to prosecutors just days before the start of Weinstein's first trial but was not part of that case.
Weinstein “would likely have characterized that timing as a vindictive and gratuitous pile-on,” prosecutors wrote in a court filing last month.
