A New York judge said Friday that Michael Cohen could subpoena the former president's son.

An attorney for Cohen said in court Friday that Donald Trump Jr., a Trump Organization executive vice president, is a relevant potential witness because the company covered his legal fees in relation to some of the same investigations for which Cohen is seeking payment.

Winstead initially said on Friday that they also intended to call the former president, saying he could testify about whether there were oral agreements related to Cohen's legal fees in 2017 and 2018. An attorney for the company said he doesn't believe either Trump should be on the witness list, and said they may still object to Donald Trump Jr.'s inclusion.
