Judge Juan Merchan has addressed the ongoing legal proceedings involving former President Donald Trump's lawyers and their arguments regarding the 'Access Hollywood tape.' Merchan clarified that while he will not allow the tape to be played to jurors, prosecutors are permitted to reference its contents during the trial.
During the recent court session, Trump's attorney, Todd Blanche, raised concerns about the introduction of an email containing the text of the tape's contents, suggesting that it exceeded the scope of Merchan's previous ruling. In response, prosecutor Joshua Steinglass noted that this issue had already been discussed earlier in the day.
