The lawsuit against Weinstein will be able to go ahead

The criminal case against Harvey Weinstein will move forward.

Judge James Burke ruled on Thursday that the case was not "irreparably tainted" by allegations that an investigator gave instructions to a witness.

The judge rejected a motion by the defense lawyers seeking to remove the charges of sexual assault against their client.

Prosecutors, for their part, argued that there is enough evidence to bring the fallen Hollywood producer to justice.

He denies all allegations of non-consensual sex. He left the courthouse without addressing the journalists.

More details will follow.
