(32 minutes later)
The Donald Trump hush-money trial has just paused for a lunch break. Kayla Epstein
It will resume at 14:15 local time (19:15 BST). Reporting from court
Stick with us, we still have some interesting moments from before the break to bring you. Pecker made regular mention of "the boss" during his testimony on Thursday, providing a mob movie quality to the whole affair.
Plus we have updates from Trump's other legal cases which are also happening today. Who is this alleged "boss" - the man Pecker and ex-lawyer Michael Cohen worked so hard for - at the centre of several alleged hush-money payouts and four hours of testimony?
It's the man at the defence table: Donald Trump, the former president.
Pecker has regularly used "the boss" title in place of Trump's name while testifying, and it has not placed the former president in a flattering light.
Pecker has alleged the following of "the boss":
"The boss" is the one who had Pecker pay $130,000 to a Playboy model over a secret affair.
"The boss" would definitely pay Pecker back, though he never did.
"The boss" would be pleased if Pecker could stop Stormy Daniels' claims from becoming public.
"The boss" would be angry if Pecker didn't do more to stop allegations of the affair from coming to light.
