00:00 It's Benzinga and here's what's on the block.
00:02 Donald Trump will not be allowed to personally deliver a closing argument at his New York
00:06 civil fraud trial on Thursday.
00:08 The judge had imposed conditions on what Trump could say, including limiting it to facts
00:11 and evidence in relevant law.
00:13 Trump's lawyer did not agree to the conditions by the deadline, so the judge ruled Trump
00:16 could not speak.
00:17 The judge also denied a request from Trump's lawyer to postpone closing arguments until
00:21 January 29th, due to the death of Trump's mother-in-law.
00:24 The fraud trial involves allegations from the New York Attorney General that Trump inflated
00:27 asset values.
00:28 A ruling could impose fines of $370 million and bar Trump from certain business activity.
