The protestor who poured tomato juice over women's rights activist Posie Parker during a raucous rally at Auckland's Albert Park has failed to have her charges dismissed.
Eliana Golberstein was filmed pouring the substance over Parker and a supporter during a Let Women Speak event in March.
She's been charged with two counts of assault.
Judge Claire Ryan on Thursday dismissed an application to have the charges thrown out.
The judge said she was satisfied there was a case to answer and the matter should go to trial.
Golberstein was charged after Let Women Speak supporters and trans-rights counter protesters clashed at Albert Park.
Parker was set to speak at the event and was escorted to Albert Park's rotunda by security.
After making it to the stage, Parker was doused in tomato juice and her speech was drowned out by counter protestors.
The scenes quickly turned riotous as pushing and scuffles broke out between attendees of Parker's rally and the larger counter-protest.
Parker was quickly escorted out of the venue by private security after being rushed and sprayed with water.
