Judge Curtis Farber set the tentative trial date on Friday after the defense and prosecution agreed they wanted to speed up the process for a retrial.
Farber said he’s also open to setting the retrial date earlier for sometime in September, depending on how pretrial discovery plays out, according to AP News.
A frail Weinstein was wheeled into the lower Manhattan courtroom wearing a blue jacket with an American flag pin on it.
The hearing was delayed over an hour due to the disruption that’s affecting computers worldwide, the outlet said.
The convicted sex offender, 72, sat in his wheelchair expressionless as the judge set the November retrial date.
