Regarding going to trial, Weinstein lawyer Ben Brafman said, I think we will fairly soon.
We intend to vigorously defend this case to the best of our ability.
Actress Marisa Tomei appeared at Manhattan Supreme Court on Thursday for Weinsteins court appearance.
Tomei declined to comment before the court proceeding.
Actress Kathy Najimy also appeared, telling Vulture, Im here to hear the proceeding and support survivors.
During the proceeding before Burke, prosecutors made public a letter indicating that a witness undermined Evanss story.
Perhaps more shockingly, the letter indicated that DiGaudio kept this apparent inconsistency from prosecutors.
The witness disclosed to prosecutors that she told DiGaudio about Evanss statements in February.
DiGaudio later told prosecutors that he failed to inform our office of the important details, per the letter.
Weinsteins legal team also claimed that an accuser attended a film with him hours after the alleged attack.
They claim that this accuser tried to recruit a friend to serve as a fabricated outcry witness.
