Judge Juan Merchan has ruled that prosecutors can question former President Donald Trump about the civil fraud case against him and his company if he takes the stand during his ongoing criminal trial. The ruling comes after a “Sandoval” hearing, where prosecutors and Trump’s lawyers argued over the scope of questioning. Prosecutors have indicated their desire to question Trump about various court determinations, including the fraud case and defamation cases filed by E. Jean Carroll. The decision on Trump’s potential testimony remains uncertain, with his team expected to make a final decision based on the scope of questioning allowed by the court.
