LOS ANGELES - A Los Angeles judge on Thursday dismissed one of 11 sexual assault counts against Harvey Weinstein, giving the former movie mogul and convicted rapist a minor and possibly temporary victory.At a hearing with the 69-year-old Weinstein in the courtroom, Judge Lisa B. Lench agreed with his defense attorneys that a count alleging sexual battery by restraint in May of 2010 was too old, and outside the statute of limitations.But she gave the prosecution permission to refile the charge in a way that may be allowable, setting up an ongoing fight.Weinstein pleaded not guilty to four counts of rape and seven other sexual assault counts last week in his first court appearance in the California case.

Some Wilmington parking violators get amnesty this week

WILMINGTON, Del. - Wilmington is granting some parking violators amnesty as the city returns to normal operations. Mayor Mike Purzycki says the city issued about 1,800 tickets on Monday and Tuesday to city residents for failing to update their parking permits or move their cars for street cleaning. The city announced last week that enforcement suspended due to the pandemic would resume, but since so many people were ticketed, the mayor says the city will offer limited amnesty this week only. Tickets issued for these violations this week will be converted to warnings, Purzycki says, but "ticketing will resume as normal" starting Monday. The amnesty doesn't apply to metered parking tickets or any other parking enforcement violation.___DOWNLOA
