Judge finds Giuliani in contempt for 2020 election defamation case

A federal judge in New York on Monday found Rudy Giuliani in contempt for failing to comply with asset disclosure requests tied to a $148 million defamation judgment won by two Georgia election workers.

U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman issued the ruling after hearing Giuliani testify during a contempt hearing. Lawyers for Ruby Freeman and Wandrea Moss argued Giuliani had failed to properly respond to requests for information about his assets, hindering their ability to collect the judgment.
