Harvey Weinstein Could Be Silenced And Booted From TWC Board Meeting
According to TMZ reports, Harvey Weinstein could be cut off at the knees
at Tuesday's Board of Directors meeting ,
because there are signs the Board might fire
him .. . which we 're told would guarantee
litigation .
Harvey , who is still a member of the Board despite being
fired from The Weinstein Co ., plans to participate in
Tuesday' s meeting via speakerphone - - he 's currently in
Arizona for rehab .
As we reported , Weinstein and his lawyer, Patty Glaser, plan
to challenge his firing, claiming there was no basis to
remove him from the company based on his Oct . 2015
employment contract.
A source from TWC tells TMZ , " Harvey 's role in the meeting
will be very limited ." We know that's not Weinstein's
intention - - he and Glaser plan to fight the firing tooth and
nail .
Our Harvey Weinstein sources smell a rat, and believe the
Board may start the meeting with a motion to kick him off
the Board . If that happens , they can disconnect the
speakerphone and kick Glaser out of the boardroom .
If that happens, there would be no debate over Weinstein's
firing , but our sources say it would guarantee a lawsuit .
Based on what we know from the contract, Weinstein might
have to go to arbitration , but his side believes if the Board
fights dirty they 'd want this to end up in court .
