Harvey Weinstein, who was found guilty Monday of rape and sexual assault charges, is set to be remanded to jail immediately.

His attorneys objected to the order from New York Supreme Court Judge James Burke, who’s overseeing Weinstein’s criminal case, arguing that Weinstein is in poor health. Burke said he will make a judicial request for Weinstein to stay in the correctional facility’s infirmary. It’s not clear in which jail the convicted rapist will be held.

The disgraced Hollywood producer, who was escorted out of the court, will be sentenced on March 11 and faces a maximum sentence of up to 25 years in prison. Burke revoked his bail.

Weinstein was convicted of third-degree rape in the 2013 case of hairstylist Jessica Mann, and first-degree criminal sexual act against Mimi Haleyi, a former actress who accused Weinstein of forcing her to perform oral sex in 2006.

The jury acquitted Weinstein on charges of predatory sexual assault.

“It’s a new day because Harvey Weinstein has finally been held accountable for crimes he committed,” Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance said at a news conference. “The women who came forward courageously and at great risk made that happen. Weinstein is a vicious serial sexual predator who used his power to threaten, rape, assault, trick, humiliate, and silence his victims.”

A verdict may have been handed down, but this doesn’t mark the end of Weinstein’s legal woes. Several lawsuits have been filed against him and he faces charges of rape, forcible oral copulation, sexual penetration by use of force, and sexual battery by restraint in Los Angeles.
