- How the Trump fraud trial unfolded
After more than two months of heated courtroom outbursts, hallway grandstanding and intensive dives into the depths of accounting minutiae, the two sides in former President Donald Trump's New York fraud trial have called their final experts, with the court now adjourning for a lengthy break before closing arguments.
Trump's defense team finished its presentation on Tuesday not with Trump, as they originally planned, but with a feisty, combative accounting professor named Eli Bartov, who proclaimed New York Attorney General Letitia James' case against Trump "absurd."
James' team then called two witnesses to rebut Bartov's testimony and other experts called by Trump's lawyers. Wednesday's proceedings were peppered with objections by Trump's attorneys, protests that occurred at an unusually high rate throughout the bench trial.
The day marked the end of witness testimony in the civil fraud trial, which now shifts to a new phase. Both sides will begin to present their closing arguments on Jan. 11, and the judge plans to issue his ruling a few weeks later.
The trial has been a lengthy, tense standoff between Trump and James, who were often in the room as their legal teams clashed. From the beginning, they took turns lashing out at each other to the media gathered outside.
Trump attended opening statements on Oct. 2, taking his motorcade downtown from Trump Tower on a nearly 80 degree day to proclaim James and the case "a disgrace." She would later call his comments "baseless" and his statements to the press, "a show."
It was the first of nine appearances he'd make during the case, in which he, two of his sons and their company are accused of reaping more than $250 million through an alleged scheme designed to misrepresent his wealth to banks and insurers. All of the defendants deny wrongdoing.
The next day, on Oct. 3, Trump published to his social media site a derogatory post about a clerk who works for Arthur Engoron, the judge in the case.
The post earned Trump a gag order, setting in motion a parallel fight that left him seething at the limits a judge can impose on a defendant. He and his campaign twice violated the order, and he paid $15,000 in fines.
The state presented its case first and called more than 20 witnesses, including Trump himself, his children Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump, as well as lesser-known defendants who formerly worked for the Trump Organization, Allen Weisselberg and Jeffrey McConney. Ivanka Trump was originally a defendant in the case, but allegations against her were dismissed by an appellate court due to the statute of limitations.
