SimpleImages/Getty Images(NEW YORK) -- Former President Donald Trump is on trial in New York City, where he is facing felony charges related to a 2016 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. It marks the first time in history that a former U.S. president has been tried on criminal charges.Trump last April pleaded not guilty to a 34-count indictment charging him with falsifying business records to hide the reimbursement of a hush money payment his then-attorney Michael Cohen made to Daniels in order to boost his electoral prospects in the 2016 presidential election.Apr 26, 5:13 PMTrump, leaving court, says prosecutors have 'no case'Following a brief huddle with his attorney Todd Blanche and adviser Boris Epshteyn, former President Trump departed the courtroom at the conclusion of the second week of his criminal trial.In remarks to reporters, he reiterated that there is "no case."Court is off on Monday, so the proceedings will resume Tuesday morning.-ABC News' Kelsey Walsh and Mike PappanoApr 26, 4:08 PMFarro says Cohen became his banking client in 2015Gary Farro, formerly a senior managing director at First Republic Bank, testified that he first met Michael Cohen when Cohen became a banking client of his in 2015, after one of Farro's colleagues left the bank.Asked why Cohen was assigned to him, Farro cited his "ability to handle individuals who might be a little challenging.""Frankly, I didn't find him that difficult," Farro remarked.First Republic Bank had a branch across the street from Trump Tower, where Cohen worked. Farro said Cohen frequently visited the bank and eagerly told him that he worked for Trump."He was a lawyer or is a lawyer. I am not sure," Farro said about Cohen, who was disbarred in 2019.Prosecutors are now walking through First Republic Bank's policies for retaining documents. Prosecutors plan to use Farro as a custodial witness to authenticate records that will be used as evidence.Apr 26, 3:53 PMProsecution calls Gary Farro as next witnessFollowing the conclusion of Rhona Graff's testimony, prosecutors called Gary Farro as their next witness.Farro currently works at Flagstar Bank. He said he is testifying voluntarily, though he said he received a subpoena prior to his testimony.Apr 26, 3:42 PMTrump greets longtime assistant after she steps off standFormer President Trump appeared to have a visible reaction when the DA's office called his longtime executive assistant to the stand, and he craned his chin up as she stepped up. He half-smiled, almost sadly.When exhibits were put on the screen during Graff's brief testimony, Trump leaned entirely forward toward the monitor on his table, squinting to see the documents.When Trump's attorney said to Graff, "You don't want to be here, do you?" Graff responded, "That's correct." Trump attorney Todd Blanche laughed, but Trump did not.At the end of Graff's testimony, when she got off the stand and made her way past Trump, he did something he hasn't done yet: He stood up from his seat to greet her, appearing to try to shake her hand.Apr 26, 3:28 PMGraff says Daniels was possibly in Trump Tower for 'The Apprentice'After longtime Trump assistant Rhona Graff testified that she vaguely recalled seeing Stormy Daniels on in the reception area on the 26th floor of Trump Tower, defense attorney Trump sought to reframe Graff's testimony as innocuous -- suggesting to Graff that Daniels was spotted in Trump Tower because she was being considered for a role on Trump's TV show, "The Apprentice."Graff, from the witness stand, confirmed that she was aware through "office chatter" that Daniels was being considered for the show. She said that Trump was frequently on the hunt for "celebrities who were colorful, or interesting" to "bring new juice to the show."As part of those musings, Graff said she became aware that Daniels was being considered."I vaguely recall hearing him say that she may be one of the interesting people who could be on the show," Graff testified.Apr 26, 3:06 PMGraff says Trump's contact entries included McDougal, DanielsDonald Trump kept contact information for two women who alleged they had sexual relationships with him, his longtime executive assistant testified Friday as the trial's second witness.After former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker concluded his historic testimony as the first witness in the first criminal trial of a former president, Graff, entered the courtroom with a cane. Trump turned to see her as she entered, but the two did not appear to make eye contact.Graff's testimony appeared to be a pick-me-up for jurors, who had been listening to the same voice on the witness stand for the better part of four days.Graff worked for the Trump Organization for 34 years, beginning in October 1987, and testified that she was responsible for keeping Trump's contacts and calendars. Graff said those contacts included Karen McDougal and Stormy DanielsGraff testified that she created the contact entry for Karen McDougal that included two addresses, a cell phone number, and an email address.Under questioning from prosecutor Susan Hoffinger, Graff testified she had also entered a contact for Stormy Daniels."It contains her mobile phone number," Graff said. "I have a vague recollection of seeing her in the reception area on the 26th floor."Graff said she also knew Daniels was a porn star.Apr 26, 2:51 PMProsecutors call longtime Trump assistant Rhona GraffProsecutors have called Donald Trump's longtime executive assistant Rhona Graff as their next witness.Former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker stepped down from the witness stand after a brief re-cross examination.Apr 26, 2:44 PMPecker explains alerting Cohen to Stormy Daniels storyFormer National Enquirer publisher David Pecker retook his seat on the witness stand after lunch, and the jury appeared engaged when prosecutor Josh Steinglass asked Pecker to explain things directly to them. Pecker slightly turned to face the jury when answering.After the defense, during cross-examination, tried to suggest Pecker didn't want to get involved in the Stormy Daniels story for business and reputational reasons, Steinglass asked him to clarify."I said to Michael Cohen that after paying for the doorman story and the Karen McDougal story I wasn't going to pay anything further and I wasn't a bank," Pecker testified. "I told (editor) Dylan Howard there is no possible way that I would buy the story for $120,000 and that I didn't want anything to do with a porn star."Steinglass asked Pecker, "Why did you reach out to Michael Cohen" about Daniels' claim of a sexual liaison with Trump?"Based on our original agreement, any stories regarding Mr. Trump that could be embarrassing, I would call Michael Cohen right away," Pecker said."You weren't going to print it? You weren't going to pay for it?" Steinglass asked."Correct," Pecker responded."But you were still going to fulfill your obligation to tell Michael Cohen about it? So the campaign could squash it?" asked Steinglass."Yes," Pecker responded.Apr 26, 2:03 PMTrump falsely claims his supporters are prevented from gatheringAs he has previously, former President Trump complained on social media this morning that his supporters were being kept from gathering outside the courthouse -- even though that's not the case."Security is that of Fort Knox, all so that MAGA will not be able to attend this trial," Trump posted before he entered the courtroom.But a small group of his supporters demonstrated this morning undisturbed in the designated protest area in the park outside the courthouse, where they've gathered each day of the trial this week.-ABC News' Brian HartmanApr 26, 1:30 PMPecker reaffirms catch-and-kill was to benefit TrumpFormer National Enquirer publisher David Pecker reiterated the basic terms of the catch-and-kill arrangement during his redirect examination, though he acknowledged he did not use the words "catch-and-kill" during his A
