However, Marshall is not expected to present a lengthy case, and court watchers say closing arguments might begin as soon as next week.
Marshall and lawyer Francis Morrissey stand accused of stealing $60 million from his mother, the beloved New York philanthropist, as her health declined before her death at age 105 in 2007.
Among the charges is that Marshall swiped $600,000 from Astor to pay for renovations at the $5.5 million summer home, while she was left to languish in New York.
Cove End, Astor’s beloved 7-acre vacation home shown in these photographs, was a source of bitter family strife.
According to testimony at the trial, Astor began talking in 2000 about leaving the property to her grandson Philip Marshall with a stipulation that his father be allowed to live there until he died.
Brooke Astor’s lawyer Henry Christensen testified that Anthony Marshall was having none of it.
“I won’t have him breathing down my neck and waiting for me to die,” Anthony Marshall allegedly said about his son.
