Manafort hearing happening now




Manafort lawyer says they're not completely sure a hearing is necessary, and that it depends on what the government's position is on whether that will impact sentencing. Suggests there's a possibility they won't contest allegations Manafort lied after plea deal.

Manafort attorney says decision about whether there needs to be a hearing on whether Manafort lied will be in part based on "information we learned today about where this all goes."

Judge in Manafort case says the filing detailing Manfort’s lies was not what she "needs," and that it "doesn’t provide me with sufficient information to make factual findings." It's too much of a summary, she says. The judge wants more information on the facts. @kpolantz
