I don't know where this is coming from but three different reporters covering the Trump trial said they are hearing offers of a settlement.
There's been private conversations between the Trump team and the State lawyers.
Alina Habba met with the judge one on one for at least a half hour.
They went to lunch, but court didn't start for while after the break.
Habba then left the courtroom.
From twitter
New: Very curious. Sitting here & 25 min late on our planned return.
Trump atty Habba walked out from chambers, alone. Then, AG’s attorneys head in.
Recently, Trump complained about a low-ball settlement offer...
Settlement bid afoot?
They return. We continue. Who knows.
A settlement? Help me here... Are they having to pay Trump for the heinous accusations? Or what is going on here?
See my other comment.
No. Trump would be making the settlement offer to the state.
From what I understand, in normal situations its the prosecutors who make the settlement offer .
Why would that be?
It's a civil suit. There's no prosecutors.
I think any party could suggest it.
In the Trump University case, it was the judge you told them to try to work it out
