Former film producer Harvey Weinstein appears in court at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center in Los Angeles, California, October 4, 2022.
Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction was overturned Thursday in New York, making way for a new trial.
The court called the errors "egregious" and ordered a new trial, meaning his accusers could again be called to testify.
"This Court has continued a disturbing trend of overturning juries' guilty verdicts in cases involving sexual violence," Singas wrote.
The charges came to light in 2017 following investigative reports published by The New York Times and The New Yorker.
