NEW YORK — Former President Donald Trump's Manhattan criminal trial is expected to continue for another week before the jury begins its deliberation. New York Judge Juan Merchan instructed the parties ahead of testimony on Monday that while he originally hoped to hear closing arguments this week, that would now get pushed to next week.
Prosecutors are nearing the end of their own case. Former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen is back on the stand this morning for a fourth day of questioning that is expected to wrap up before lunch. Prosecutors for the Manhattan District Attorney allege Trump committed 34 felony counts of falsified business records — and Cohen is central to proving it.
