The court reconvened after a lunch break to resume proceedings in the case involving Michael Cohen's cell phones. The prosecution has filed a motion to seal exhibits related to the phones, which is currently under discussion by the court.
Additionally, the judge is set to conduct a Sandoval hearing later in the day. This routine hearing will focus on Donald Trump's criminal history and determine the extent to which prosecutors can inquire about it if the defendant chooses to testify.
Before the lunch break, jury selection was completed, with a panel of 12 jurors and six alternates being seated on Friday afternoon. The selection process, which began on Monday, has now concluded, paving the way for the trial to proceed.
