Donald Trump is back in Manhattan criminal court Thursday for Day 10 of his
trial. The judge held another hearing to determine whether the presidential
candidate is continuing to violate a gag order, but he did not immediately issue
a ruling.



Witness Keith Davidson returned to the stand. The Los Angeles lawyer represented
Stormy Daniels as she brokered a deal in 2016 to keep an alleged tryst with
Trump secret ahead of the election. His testimony began Tuesday; the trial took
a break Wednesday.

HERE'S WHAT TO KNOW:

Davidson testified Tuesday that Daniels’s story became more valuable after The
Washington Post in October 2016 revealed offensive comments that Trump made on a
hot mic on “Access Hollywood.” When that went public, Trump and his team became
extremely concerned about his reputation among female voters.
The trial is not being televised. The Washington Post has reporters in the
courtroom and media overflow room who are posting live updates.
Trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records related to his
reimbursement of longtime lawyer Michael Cohen for a hush money payment before
the 2016 election to Daniels, an adult-film actress.
