Fun times in New York Court - Part 2


He definitely did not refer to him as "President Trump".

Before the break...




Trump's testimony continued after lunch.



Huh?


Tuesday is election day, so nothing tomorrow.


Team Trump is foreshadowing motions they will make at the conclusion of the AG’s case, such as a motion for a mistrial or directed verdict. The lawyers are hinting that it has something to do with the subject of the existing gag order and likely concerns the judge’s principal law clerk, but not, as Trump attorney Aline [sic] Habba noted, her notes with Engoron.

Engoron instructs them that they cannot make such a motion to the extent that it would trigger the gag order.

Habba clarifies that the existence and content of the notes are not the subject of their anticipated motions. She asks if they can have an opportunity to be heard on those issues, even if they would fall within the gag order.

Engoron relents and says they may do so in writing; Habba pledges to do so “delicately.” Engoron asks them to do so through a procedural mechanism known as an order to show cause, which the judge will see but which is not filed until he signs it.
