Quick Glance: New York Overturns Harvey Weinstein's 2020 Rape Conviction
- New York's highest court overturned Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction, citing prejudicial rulings by the judge in the landmark #MeToo trial.
- The State Court of Appeals ruling reopens a painful chapter in America's reckoning with sexual misconduct by powerful figures, ordering a new trial where his accusers might have to relive their traumas.
- Weinstein, 72, has been serving a 23-year sentence in a New York prison following his conviction, but will remain imprisoned due to another rape conviction in Los Angeles in 2022.
- This decision marks another setback for #MeToo, following the US Supreme Court's refusal to hear an appeal in the Bill Cosby case, where his sexual assault conviction was overturned by a Pennsylvania court.

- Homer Laffoon, Anne Heche's eldest child, is reportedly unable to pay his late mother's debts.
- Heche's estate reportedly consists of a 'modest bank account, royalty payments, and other residual income from pre-death projects,' as well as some business arrangements related to her career and a podcast.
- Despite ongoing appraisals of Heche's assets, at least seven creditors have filed suit against her estate, including Jennifer and John Durand, as well as Lynne Mishele who was living in their house at the time of the crash.
- Laffoon, as the administrator of Heche's estate, expressed optimism that creditor claims can be resolved fairly, but there are challenges due to insufficient funds to settle lawsuits from Heche's accident.

Quick Glance: Disneyland performers seek unionization
- Performers who assist in bringing Disney's popular characters to life in the Southern California theme parks filed a petition on Wednesday to form a labor union.
