100 CENTRE STREET, May 6 -- Harvey Weinstein was in his wheelchair, this time with Marc Agnifilo, Teny Geragos and Jacob Kaplan as his lawyers, as opening arguments began before NYS Justice Curtis Farber on April 21. Inner City Press was there and live tweeted. So too on May 5, when the two sides fought about exhibits that are still not being provided to the public and press.
On May 1 Inner City Press put together a letter as it had with Justice Gregory Carro down the hall during his Luigi Mangione hearing (after which Justice Carro ordered the parties to provide exhibits). Yes, NYS Justices still list fax numbers and not emails and no, they do not seem to still have fax machines. But Justice Farber got the letter. Letter here.
And see new book, Harvey Weinstein's Last Stand, e-book and audiobook.
Nothing has happened. As of 5 pm five days later, not a single exhibit has been provided.
May 5, after two medical witnesses testified about records only briefly flashed on the screen, talk turned to a possible witness who spoke with SDNY prosecutors. Justice Farber said he doubted any subpoena he might sign would get the interview notes from the SDNY - and that absent the notes, the witness cannot testify.
