In a recent court proceeding, Judge Juan Merchan made a ruling to sustain an objection raised by Manhattan prosecutor Susan Hoffinger. The objection was in response to a follow-up question posed by Hoffinger during the trial.
The question in question was: 'What was your understanding of why Keith Davidson reached out to you after the deal was signed?' The judge's decision to sustain the objection meant that the witness was not required to answer the follow-up question.
