Judge rules Rudy Giuliani liable for defaming Georgia election workers
TL;DR Summary
Rudy Giuliani, former attorney for Donald Trump, has been found liable for defaming two Georgia poll workers in a default judgment. Giuliani failed to produce records during the discovery process and made excuses to avoid compliance, according to the judge. The defamation case will proceed to trial to determine damages, but Giuliani has already been ordered to pay $89,172.50 in attorney fees. This marks the second time Giuliani has been held liable, following the Fox-Dominion settlement. Giuliani is also facing 13 felony charges in the Georgia election interference case and has struggled to pay his mounting legal fees.
