A New York judge ordered that Harvey Weinstein be extradited to Los Angeles to face 11 counts of sexual assault.
June 15 (UPI) — A New York judge on Tuesday ordered Harvey Weinstein to be extradited to Los Angeles to face sexual assault charges. Erie County Court Judge Kenneth Case denied a motion by Weinstein’s attorney to delay his extradition and local prosecutors said the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office plans to transport Weinstein sometime by mid-July. Weinstein’s attorney, Norman Effman, said he plans to appeal the order. He added that Weinstein is not trying to avoid trial and said Los Angeles County could conduct a virtual arraignment.
