In a dry, repetitive manner, jurors were shown the invoices that Michael Cohen sent to the Trump Organization to request payment for legal services pursuant to a retainer agreement, in order to repay the hush payment to Stormy Daniels.
The 11 invoices comprise 11 of the 34 criminal counts Trump faces.
Former Trump Organization controller Jeff McConney paged through exhibits showing emails and invoices for each month over the course of the repayment schedule.
Each of Cohen’s 11 invoices read, “Pursuant to the retainer agreement, kindly remit payment for services rendered for the month of [name of month].”
McConney testified that he forwarded the invoices to Deborah Tarasoff, who worked in the Trump Organization’s accounting department.
“Please pay from the Trust. Post to legal expenses,” McConney wrote on February 14, 2017.
