During a recent hearing, Trump attorney Emil Bove highlighted that the 1099 forms sent to Michael Cohen in 2017 indicated that the payments made to him were also disclosed to the IRS. This revelation came to light during a questioning session where Bove sought clarification on the nature of the payments.
When asked if the payments were disclosed to the IRS, McConney, the individual being questioned, confirmed that they were indeed reported to the tax authorities. Bove then pointed out that the form in question did not provide a breakdown between payments for legal services and other expenses.
