Celebrity chef Mario Batali's trial on sexual misconduct charge in Boston has been set for April.
The trial will take place April 11 in Boston Municipal Court, Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins' office said Tuesday after a hearing.
His lawyers didn't respond to an email seeking comment Tuesday but have previously said the charge filed in 2019 is “without merit.” After four women accused him of inappropriate touching in 2017, Batali stepped down from day-to-day operations at his restaurant empire and left the since-discontinued ABC cooking show “The Chew.”
