Rudy Giuliani has been found in contempt of court for failing to turn over assets to Georgia election workers.
A federal judge in Manhattan found Rudy Giuliani in contempt of court on Monday for failing to comply with information requests related to his assets, as he faces a $148 million defamation judgment awarded to two Georgia election workers. Judge Lewis J. Liman delivered the ruling after hearing Giuliani testify during a two-day contempt hearing.
In 2023, Giuliani was found liable for defaming them, leading to the substantial judgment. Lawyers for Freeman and Moss accused Giuliani of exhibiting a "consistent pattern of willful defiance" of Liman’s October order to liquidate assets to satisfy the judgment. While Giuliani has surrendered some property, including a Mercedes-Benz and his Manhattan apartment, their attorneys argue he has not provided necessary paperwork to monetize those assets.
