Judge Arthur Engoron, who previously handed Trump a gag order for attacking a court clerk on social media, ordered the former president to quiet down after he expressed frustration and interrupted real estate appraiser Doug Larsonās testimony by speaking loudly to his legal team.
New York State lawyer Kevin Wallace had complained to Engoron, saying that Trumpās āexhortationsā were distracting to those on the witnessā side of the room, the Associated Press reported.
A few hours later, a reporter for Law 360 reported that an unnamed woman had āwalked up to the front of the [public] gallery, approaching āthe wellā where Trump was seated.ā She was immediately confronted by law enforcement, who told her to return to her seat then later led her out of the courtroom.
In a statement to The Independent, a spokesperson for New York State courts said the woman was a court employee who had since been placed on administrative leave. She was āyelling out to Mr. Trump indicating she wanted to assist him,ā the spokesperson said.
His defense lawyers are part of the deep state, which is why he wonāt be paying them.
oh. sure. thatās why trump wonāt be paying his billsā¦
Iāve been reliably informed that any other explanation is fake news from the lying media.
