Judge Juan Merchan is currently awaiting the arrival of two jurors who were questioned yesterday. He has indicated that he will give them a few more minutes to show up before deciding whether to replace them or not.
Trump attorney Todd Blanche has expressed the desire to excuse the two jurors and proceed with the proceedings as they are already running 15 minutes behind schedule.
Additionally, another juror who arrived this morning has been excused after reporting feeling unwell.
Judge Juan Merchan has instructed the sergeant to prepare the prospective jurors for further questioning to ensure the process continues smoothly.
