Former President Trump returns to his Manhattan courtroom Monday as prosecutors continue to call witnesses, ultimately building toward testimony from former lawyer Michael Cohen. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg claims Trump reimbursed Cohen for hush money payments to pornography actress Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.

Deborah Tarasoff, a Trump Organization accounts payable supervisor said that only former President Trump was able to sign off on checks from his personal account. Tarasoff confirmed during Monday testimony that “only Mr. Trump” could and can sign checks from the personal account - any checks, no matter the amount. Tarasoff added that if Trump “didn’t want to sign a check, he didn’t sign it.

” Trump would would also write 'void' on a check and send it back, Tarasoff said, adding that void or Trump's signature would be written in black sharpie. Tarasoff, who testified that she did not have any decision-making authority and only followed instructions, described the Trump organization as a family business during her testimony, saying that she has worked with all three of Trump's adult children through the years.
