Harvey Weinstein is set to be extradited to Los Angeles within 30 days to face further charges of rape and sexual assault.
Erie County Judge Kenneth Case indicated Weinstein would be sent to Los Angeles come 30 May.
According to The Los Angeles Times, in Los Angeles Weinstein faces four counts of forcible rape, four counts of forcible oral copulation, two counts of sexual battery and one count of sexual penetration by force connected to the alleged assaults of five women from 2004 to 2013.
The only way Weinstein will avoid extradition is if New York Governor Andrew Cuomo intervenes or if Weinstein’s attorneys successfully contest the arrest.
