In a hearing that lasted over two hours in a courtroom packed with reporters, Judge Kimba Wood declined to grant Cohen's request to have an independent arbiter -- or special master -- review the documents and records. The judge said she would decide whether a special master would adjudicate what investigators can access, as requested by Cohen. Cohen's lawyer can share subsets of the material with Trump and the Trump Organization for their own privilege review. Stephen Ryan, an attorney for Cohen, said Trump Organization materials had been seized in the raid. Hannity added, "not one of any issue I ever dealt with Michael Cohen on ever, ever involved a matter between me and any third party."
