- Bianca Censori testified as the project’s lead architect and confirmed she holds power of attorney for Ye, describing her role as visualizing his concepts.
- Saxon seeks more than $1 million, alleging unpaid wages, hazardous conditions, on‑site sleeping in makeshift quarters, injury, and wrongful termination during the 2021 renovation.
- Ye’s team argues Saxon misrepresented his credentials, was an unlicensed independent contractor, and was paid for his work, with figures cited around $240,000.
- Both sides have rested and closing arguments are scheduled for Monday, with jurors to decide liability and any damages after testimony about off‑the‑grid plans and a staircase‑to‑slide idea.
