The first criminal trial for former president and current criminal defendant Donald J. Trump is about to conclude, with summations scheduled for early next week.  The last week saw star witness Michael Cohen continue to weather cross from defense counsel and cartoonish behavior from a longtime litigator on the witness stand. It didn’t end well for said witness. 

ALM litigation reporter Emily Saul has been in the courtroom every day of the trial and gets us up to date about what is going on, including the bizarre behavior by Robert Costello and what we can expect in the coming week.
