Trump's lawyer threatened with sanctions at the close of Stormy Daniels hearing

After getting off to a rough start, the hearing in New York over the Stormy Daniels hush money trial ended with another sharp reprimand.

According to Just Security fellow Adam Klasfeld's live updates from the courtroom, "Trump's prosecutor Christopher Conroy complained about not receiving defense exhibits as discovery some six weeks before trial."

The judge wasn't happy.

“There could be sanctions for failure to comply,” the judge said.

He had previously requested that potential jurors detail campaign contributions, which the assistant district attorney said could become a proxy for asking about party affiliation.
