Disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein was secured a partial victory in court Monday. <\/p>\n

A judge said she would allow Weinstein’s defense the opportunity to question the wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, about an email she sent to Weinstein two years after she was allegedly raped by the now 70-year-old.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles Judge Lisa Lench ruled that the defense could ask about an email Siebel Newsom sent seeking media advice from Weinstein, but could not say it was about revelations of an affair that Gavin Newsom had with an aid when he was mayor of San Francisco. <\/p>\n

Weinstein’s attorney, Mark Werksman, argued it was imperative to include the details, stating, “Of all things you’d think a woman that is raped by Harvey Weinstein wouldn’t do, it’s ask him how to deal with a sex scandal.”<\/p>\n

The judge disagreed with Werksman, suggesting he was overstating the case by saying Weinstein’s due process was at stake.<\/p>\n
