The federal embezzlement trial of Atlanta lawyer Nathan Hardwick IV continued Tuesday with testimony for the prosecution by Hardwick’s former law partner, Art Morris.

Morris told the jury that their now-defunct firm, Morris Hardwick Schneider, had paid off personal debts for Hardwick to keep bank clients happy, but he and Randy Schneider, who co-founded the residential real estate closing and default firm 40 years ago, had refused to pay for Hardwick’s frequent private jet travel.
