JURORS in Harvey Weinstein’s sex crimes retrial are stuck in limbo as deliberations continue for the third day.

The jury asked the judge to clarify the rules of a hung jury in a note on Monday morning, signalling that the jurors might not be in agreement on Weinstein’s verdict.

The panel of seven women and five men began weighing two counts of criminal sex act and one count of rape against the disgraced movie mogul on Thursday.

Weinstein, 73, has pleaded not guilty.

The jury has shown signs of multiple issues in coming to a decision on the retrial.

On Monday morning, jurors sent back-to-back notes to the judge.

In one note, the jury requested hung jury rules and for the definition of reasonable doubt.

Judge Curtis Farber emphasized that there’s no indication that the jury is hung yet.

In another note, the jury’s foreperson asked to speak to the judge “about a situation that isn’t very good.”

The juror said he was concerned about “something going on in the jury room.”

The juror then went behind closed doors to discuss the issue with prosecutors, the defense team, and Farber.

It’s unclear what the issue in question is.

On Friday, Farber denied a juror who asked to be removed from deliberations.

The juror claimed that some jurors were treating a member in an “unfair and unjust way.”

However, the judge told him he had to keep deliberating.

Farber also denied the defense’s request for a mistrial over the issue.
