Ex-President Donald Trump's lawyer requested that court staff stop rolling their eyes before Michael Cohen returned to the witness stand.

Former President Donald Trump flanked by his defense attorney Alina Habba wait for the continuation of his civil business fraud trial at New York Supreme Court on Wednesday Ex-President Donald Trump’s lawyer called out the judge and clerk in his fraud trial for ‘eye rolls’ and other ‘incredibly distracting’ behavior. Trump’s defense attorney Alina Habba requested that Judge Arthur Engoron’s court staff refrain from certain gestures, highlighting the tension between them in the courtroom.

Earlier in the civil fraud trial, Trump posted a photo of Greenfield posing with Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and labeled her ‘Schumer’s girlfriend’. That led to Engoron issuing a limited gag order prohibiting all actors in the case from smearing his staff. Habba’s request put on the record that Trump’s team believes Engoron or his staff may be acting in a biased way.
