Dragon on Centre Street : New York vs. Donald J. Trump / by Bromwich, Jonah, E.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."In the spring of 2024, former President Trump, flanked by his band of loyal supporters, was shuttled daily into a gloomy Manhattan courtroom to face a trial with monumental stakes -- for him, and for the country. Inside, a cast of larger-than-life characters awaited: tabloid impresario David Pecker; mess-making "fixer" Michael Cohen; counterpunching porn star Stormy Daniels; an enigmatic district attorney and the no-nonsense judge tasked with keeping the trial moving -- and bringing Trump to heel. Each played a crucial part in a high-stakes legal drama with remarkable repercussions for American politics in the year of a historic election. New York Times journalist Jonah Bromwich was there, capturing every moment -- from the streets to the courtroom, to the back-office maneuvering. His daily reports gripped a global audience. Now, armed with new reporting and insider knowledge, Bromwich delivers the definitive account of this stranger-than-fiction showdown on Centre Street. Dragon on Centre Street is a gripping, absurd, and outrageous story of power, attention, and America's future. A must-read for anyone seeking to understand this defining moment in history -- and a political drama so wild, you'll have to remind yourself it's all true"--

The local : a legal thriller / by Hartstone, Joey,author.;
"A freewheeling, small-town attorney takes on a national murder trial when an out-of-town client is accused of killing a federal judge in Texas. In the town of Marshall sits the Federal courthouse of the Eastern District of Texas, a place revered by patent lawyers for its speedy jury trials and massive punitive payouts. Marshall is flooded with patent lawyers, all of whom find work being the local voice for the big-city legal teams that need to sway a small-town jury. One of the best is James Euchre. Euchre's new client is Amir Zawar, a firebrand CEO forced to defend his life's work against a software patent infringement. Late one night, after a heated confrontation in a preliminary hearing, Judge Gardner is found murdered in the courthouse parking lot. All signs point to Zawar-he has motive, he has opportunity, and he has no alibi. Moreover, he is an outsider, a wealthy Pakistani-American businessman, the son of immigrants, who stands accused of killing a beloved hometown hero. Zawar claims his innocence, and demands that Euchre defend him. It's the last thing Euchre wants-Judge Gardner was his good friend and mentor-but the only way he can get definitive answers is to take the case. With the help of a former prosecutor and a local PI, Euchre must navigate the byzantine world of criminal defense law in a town where everyone knows everyone, and bad blood has a long history. The deeper he digs, the more he fears that he'll either send an innocent man to death row or set a murderer free. The Local is a small-town legal thriller as big in scope as Texas. It crackles with courtroom tension and high stakes gambits on every page to the final, shocking verdict. Joey Hartstone is a film and television writer. He has written two feature films, LBJ (2016) and Shock and Awe (2017), which were both directed by Rob Reiner. He wrote on the first two seasons of the legal drama The Good Fight. He is currently a writer on the Showtime series Your Honor. Joey lives in Los Angeles with his family"--

Courtroom drama : a novel / by Alexander, Neely Tubati,author.;
Sydney Parks thinks she might be the first person in the world to look forward to serving jury duty. When Margot Kitsch, an OG cast member of the hit reality show Authentic Moms of Malibu is arrested after the untimely death of her cast member husband, Joe, Sydney knows being selected for the jury is the most interesting thing that ever happened to her. However, it doesn't take long for Sydney to realize that being part of a sequestered jury in a high-profile case is not at all what legal dramas had led her to expect--especially when she learns that her childhood best friend, Damon, whom she hasn't seen in ten years, is also a jury member. As the trial wears on, Sydney realizes there's a lot more to the case than she first thought. And there's also a lot more to Damon--she soon finds herself falling under his spell despite the court's instructions not to fraternize. His tendency to break the rules and find adventure is hard to resist in their otherwise dull juror's world. But getting close to Damon also means having to face the complicated reasons their friendship abruptly ended just when they were on the precipice of something more. With all the drama in and out of the courtroom, how is Sydney supposed to ignore the fraught history between them? How is she supposed to avoid him when he's sitting next to her in the jury box every day with his broad shoulders and intoxicating smell? And how is she supposed to ensure Margot gets a fair trial if her unfinished business with Damon causes the mistrial of the century?
