Prosecutors have asked for a September retrial for Harvey Weinstein, who was back in a New York courtroom for the first time since his 2020 rape conviction was overturned by an appeals court last week.

Prosecutors asked for a September retrial for Harvey Weinstein during a hearing Wednesday in Manhattan, the disgraced movie mogul's first court appearance since his 2020 rape conviction was overturned by an appeals court last week.One of Weinstein’s accusers, Jessica Mann, is prepared to testify again, prosecutor Nicole Blumberg told the judge, suggesting locking in a date after Labor Day.

The Associated Press does not generally identify people alleging sexual assault unless they consent to be named, as Haley and Mann have.Speaking after the hearing, Haley's lawyer, Gloria Allred, said her client still hasn't decided whether she wants to testify at the retrial, noting that doing so at the original trial was traumatizing and painful. Haley was not in court Wednesday, Allred said.
