Trump was found guilty on all 34 felony counts in his hush money trial.
Former President Donald Trump has been found guilty on all 34 felony counts related to a 2016 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. It marks the first time in history that a former U.S. president has been convicted on criminal charges.
Trump last April pleaded not guilty to a 34-count indictment charging him with falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment his then-attorney Michael Cohen made to Daniels in order to boost his electoral prospects in the 2016 presidential election.
"We did receive another note" from the jury this morning, Judge Merchan said.
According to Merchan, the jury wants the readback to begin with a description of how the jury should consider that evidence, and what should be drawn from the testimony.
Second, the jury said they want headphones "for use with the evidence laptop."
Merchan says the jury will get both headphones and a speaker so they can listen to the evidence.
Judge Juan Merchan took his seat on the bench and began the day's proceedings.
After introductions from the lawyers, Merchan said his usual, "Good morning, Mr. Trump."
Before Merchan entered the courtroom, one of the court officers left a document on the bench and handed copies to both parties.
Former President Trump has entered the courthouse for the day's proceedings.
The prosecution team has arrived in the courtroom. Prosecutor Josh Steinglass was seen reviewing documents with a court reporter.
Ahead of the start of deliberations this morning, court stenographers are sorting through seven enormous transcript binders that are scattered around the jury box.
With the jury requesting readbacks of testimony, the transcripts are set to play a key role in this morning's proceedings.
About 60 members of the press are packed into the gallery ahead of the proceedings.
