The proceedings began around 9:30 a.m. with testimony from a witness whose decorum on the stand led the judge to briefly clear the courtroom.

Robert Costello, a former aide to ex-fixer Michael Cohen, was called as the defense’s second and potentially final witness in the case, in which Trump is accused of falsifying business records.
