So Harvey Weinstein is going to challenge his firing from The Weinstein Co. Apparently his contract was written in such a way that if he was charged with sexual harassment, the company couldn't fire him. Instead, Weinstein would have to personally pay for any judgment that was awarded + a fine (payable to The Weinstein Co). First offense was 250k, second 500k, third 750k, 4th and each one after that 1 million.
Should be an interesting case.
I heard about his contract reading like that but I cannot believe he would possibly try to fight it. I eard it mention more in terms of opening company to liabilighy.
