So Costello's being allowed as a rebuttal witness but limited.

Justice Merchan rules that Robert Costello can be called to scrutinize Cohen's two allegedly inconsistent statements, and he'll have "some latitude" to testify on the alleged pressure campaign.

But the judge says he won't allow a "trial within a trial" beyond that.

Costello quotes Cohen as saying:

"I swear to God, Bob. I don't have anything on Donald Trump."

Costello also quotes Cohen saying:

"I don't understand why they're trying to put me in jail for some f-ing NDAs."

Lots of objections being sustained

It occurs to me they might call Cohen back as a stand as a rebuttal to the rebuttal. I don't know if they can do that but seems possible

Prosecutor: Objection. Judge: Sustained.

Costello: "Geez!"

This caused the judge to send the jury out and to talk to Costello.

Justice Merchan: You don't give me side eye or roll your eyes.... Clear the courtroom!

Holy Smokes

After Costello said "jeez" into the mic, Merchan, fires at him, "What did you just say?"

"Strike it," Costello responds.

That's some chutzpah! Sir, you are not the judge.

It's tense in the courtroom.
