72% Informative
New Jersey -based Alina Habba has represented Trump in a variety of lawsuits, including the E. Jean Carroll case.
But she has another client: Allen Weisselberg , former chief financial officer of the Trump Organization .
He was forced to testify at trial, but he steadfastly refused to turn on the former president.
Habba 's brash advocacy on Trump ’s behalf was fully on display in the latest Carroll trial.
It's not clear what ethical obligations she’s referring to.
Engoron — in an emailed response to counsel Thursday — reaffirmed Habba 's duties under Rule 3.3.3 .
He ended with a stern warning: “[I]f someone pleads guilty to committing perjury in a case over which I am presiding, I want to know about it”.
