The former New York City mayor has lost his law license.
Rudy Giuliani has been disbarred, according to a decision handed down Tuesday by the Appellate Division First Department in New York.The ruling is a consequence of Giuliani's "demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers, and the public at large in his capacity as lawyer for former President Donald J. Trump and the Trump campaign in connection with Trump's failed effort at reelection in 2020.
Former Mayor of New York Rudy Giuliani talks to reporters as he leaves after his defamation trial in Washington, Friday, Dec. 15, 2023.Giuliani claimed he believed the statements at the time he was making them but the court was not persuaded. The decision added, "Contrary to respondent's allegations, there is nothing on the record before us that would permit the conclusion that respondent lacked knowledge of the falsehood of the numerous statements that he made, and that he had a good faith basis to believe them to be true.""The seriousness of respondent's misconduct cannot be overstated," the ruling said.
Giuliani, several allies of Trump and alleged fake electors pleaded not guilty in May in a Maricopa County, Arizona, court for their alleged efforts to overturn the election results in that state. The former NYC mayor that same month agreed to cease accusations of election fraud against two former Georgia election workers who won a $148 judgment after a judge found him guilty of defaming the two women.I-10 WB in Beaumont reopens day after large crack prompted closure
