Recess until 11:30 EDT. Really probably for the best that Jones isn't recalled today, no way this would have gone well with Pattis though interesting that he might call him again next week?

Well that was probably the smartest thing they could have done, but I'm bummed we don't get to watch everybody end up slapped with contempt within 5 minutes of him taking the stand.

I wonder how much of this was Jones telling Pattis he doesn't want to take the stand again. Like he has to realize how bad that went for him yesterday?

Well the Law and Order feed has him 'press conferenceing' again where he's engaging in the usual rewriting of history.

"I'm not testifying today because Chris Mattei destroyed himself". Yes I'm sure that's correct.

Jones says the reason he’s not testifying is because Mattei has the trial rigged lol. Calling him an ambulance chaser in this presser. loving scumbag, no pushback from the press.

Guys all the lawyers in Connecticut told Mattei he lost the case and is going to get disbarred. Pattis told him so, it’s definitely happening.

In recess until 11:30 eastern due to Norm having to review some documents(?)

No, it was actually because Norm decided that he was not going to cross-examine Alex (and instead he'll call Alex when presenting his defense) so the plaintiff had a big block of time that they weren't prepared to fill yet, didn't have the witness lined up ready to testify, need to discuss, etc...

So the delay was at the request of the plaintiff, to let them discuss what they were going to present next. Not a big deal since they're ahead of schedule.

Edit:

The plaintiff lawyer said it was a "charge" which I believe in this context would be an instruction from the judge to the jury, probably about some bullshit Alex said yesterday.

Calling the judge a puppet in a press conference on the steps of her courthouse the day after being warned that any more outbursts will get him found in contempt of court is... is it really playing with fire (as opposed to just self-immolating) if you're standing on a massive lake of gasoline while also dousing yourself in kerosene while doing so?

Jones didn't want to take the stand in the first place, he was only in the courtroom because the plaintiffs called him up there

After his meltdown yesterday, and especially with the judge announcing "ZERO TOLERANCE", it's not even slightly surprising Pattis didn't want to call him up

He does, and my understanding from this morning is that they won't.

No, he just put his hand over the mic to gently caress it up, he really hates being recorded in sidebars/etc, he's hosed with the mic by the judge's table like four different times and been told to stop doing it (and one time knocked over a tablet or something and had to fiddle with it for like 30 seconds trying to fix it)
