Harvey Weinstein could be retried on rape charges in Manhattan on Nov. 12 after a judge set a tentative trial date at a Friday court hearing.

Judge Curtis Farber said he was also open to an earlier start date in September depending on how pretrial discovery plays out. Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers say they want to proceed as soon as possible.
