“By resting its case, the defense now paves the way for closing arguments and ultimately, jury deliberations. There are a few steps before the jury gets the case, namely those closing arguments, and then the jury will have to be instructed in the law by Judge Juan Merchan before they can go back to a separate room and start deliberating the charges at hand.”

STORYLINE:
Donald Trump’s lawyers have rested their defense in the former president’s New York hush money trial, bringing the case one step closer to final arguments.
The prosecution will get a chance to call rebuttal witnesses now that the defense witnesses have had their turn on the stand.
The judge has said he expects closing arguments to happen on May 28, the Tuesday after Memorial Day.
Prosecutors have accused Trump of a scheme to bury negative stories to fend off damage to his 2016 presidential campaign and then falsifying internal business records to cover it up.
Trump has denied any wrongdoing.
