Giuliani’s assets at risk as Georgia election workers pursue $146M defamation claim

Published



Two former Georgia election workers have filed a civil lawsuit against former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and alleged he is trying to shield his assets following a $148 million defamation judgment against him.

The lawsuit from Ruby Freeman and Wandrea Moss claims Giuliani falsely declared his Palm Beach, Florida, condominium as his new primary residence to exploit Florida’s homestead law, which protects primary residences from court judgments. This declaration followed a federal judge’s dismissal of Giuliani’s bankruptcy case in July, which previously protected him from the judgment.

Freeman and Moss argue that Giuliani has not made the condominium his primary residence and noted his regular online broadcasts from other locations.
