Following the fourth full day of testimony from witnesses for the defense Thursday, Donald Trump took to social media overnight to tout his case.

The former president posted that defense witnesses have "conclusively" proven that his financial statements were conservative and adequately disclosed, while claiming that New York Attorney General Letitia James and Judge Arthur Engoron "knowingly, substantially, & outrageously" devalued his assets.

After criticizing Engoron's law clerk in a post last night, Trump's latest posts do not reference the clerk, who Trump was previously prohibited from mentioning under the limited gag order that was temporarily lifted yesterday.

Hours after an appeals court temporarily lifted a gag order that prohibited Donald Trump from commenting about court staff in his civil fraud trial, the former president criticized Judge Arthur Engoron's law clerk on social media.

Describing the gag order as "Ridiculous and Unconstitutional," Trump applauded the appeals court for its decision and described Engoron's clerk as "politically biased and out of control."

Engoron issued the limited gag order after Trump made a false social media post about the clerk last month. This evening's post marked the first time Trump has explicitly mentioned her since then.

Trump also attacked New York Attorney General Letitia James, calling her a "worldwide disgrace," and his former attorney Michael Cohen, who testified against him during the trial.

After attentively watching the testimony of the defense's real estate expert Steven Laposa, Judge Engoron adjourned court for the day without referencing the stay of his limited gag order issued this afternoon by an appellate court.

The judge's clerk -- who was the subject of Trump's false social media post that triggered Engoron's limited gag order last month -- remained in her regular seat next to the judge after the ruling came down.

Court will resume with Laposa back on the stand Friday.

The New York attorney general's approach to valuing Donald Trump's properties was "flawed," according to testimony from the defense's real estate expert Steven Laposa.

Laposa said that the attorney general's complaint relied on a market value analysis of Trump's properties, rather than the investment value of the assets, which would consider the asset's value based on an individual's investment requirements instead of market norms.

"In my opinion, it's flawed," Laposa said about the attorney general's findings.

Judge Arthur Engoron appeared attentive during Laposa's testimony, overruling an objection from the state that would have limited the scope of his testimony.

"I want to hear what he says about evaluations," Engoron said.

Senior Enforcement Counsel Kevin Wallace of the New York attorney general's office will lead the direct examination of Donald Trump when the former president takes the stand this morning.

Wallace led the depositions of Trump during the New York attorney general's investigation and also delivered the state's opening statement in the trial.

"The defendants were lying year after year," Wallace said in his opening statement.

A constant presence in court during the trial, Wallace joined the New York AG's office in 2018 after working in the private sector for 15 years.

Wallace and Trump sparred for hours during Trump's April deposition, according to a transcript of the deposition that was subsequently released by the AG's office.

"We're going to be here until midnight if your client answers every question with an eight-minute speech," Wallace remarked after one of Trump's lengthier answers.

Wallace tried to press Trump on spreadsheets that Wallace displayed during the deposition, promoting frequent objections from Trump's lawyers.

"Oh my God -- are you people capable of reading a spreadsheet?" an exasperated Wallace said after one objection from Trump's attorney Chris Kise.
