New York state’s highest court has agreed to allow former movie producer Harvey Weinstein to appeal his rape and sexual assault conviction.

New York state’s highest court has agreed to allow former movie producer Harvey Weinstein to appeal his rape and sexual assault conviction, offering Weinstein a distant chance of being granted a new trial.

The letter did not detail what grounds may have led to the decision and it has no bearing on further rape charges against him in California. The bar for ordering a new trial is high, but Weinstein was “relieved at this decision,” said one of his lawyers, Arthur Aidala, after speaking with his client in prison.
