A bankruptcy judge gave Rudy Giuliani the green light to seek a new trial to challenge the $148 million defamation verdict won by two Georgia election workers after Rudy got railroaded by an Obama judge and was unable to present any evidence at trial.
Last month Rudy Giuliani filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection one day after Obama-appointed Judge Beryl Howell ordered immediate enforcement of Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss’s $148 million judgment against him.
According to Bloomberg, Giuliani listed $500 million in debts and between $1 million and $10 million in assets.
The bankruptcy filing put the litigation on hold and now the judge is allowing Giuliani to seek a new trial to challenge the outrageous $148 million judgment.
“He’s currently suspended from the practice of law, so he can’t earn income right now as a lawyer,” Giuliani’s lawyer Gary Fischoff said, according to Reuters. “There’s no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and the debtor is going to give full disclosure.”
Excerpt from Reuters:
A U.S. bankruptcy judge on Friday gave Rudy Giuliani limited permission to challenge a $148 million defamation verdict won by two former Georgia election workers whom he had falsely accused of fraud after former Republican President Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane said at a court hearing in White Plains, New York, that he would allow Giuliani to seek a new trial to challenge the amount of damages awarded to Wandrea “Shaye” Moss and her mother, Ruby Freeman, but not pursue a full appeal. But first, Lane said, Giuliani will have to provide more information about who is paying his legal bills.
Gary Fischoff, an attorney for the former Trump lawyer, told Lane that Giuliani cannot pay the $148 million verdict, much less have anything left over to pay others who have sued him.
Giuliani has told the bankruptcy court that third-party legal defense funds are footing the bill for cases he is facing related to his 2020 election claims, and that they have already paid $847,000 to cover his defenses. Fishcoff said Giuliani intends to provide further information on his funding sources next week.

Giuliani was at Trump’s rally tonight..
The judgement is absurd. Give them a $1 and be done with it.
Oh, here is a idea. How about allowing the trial to be retried, and this time allow Giuliani to present a defense, say with video of those two stalwart vote counters repeatedly counting the same batch over and over?
“U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane…will allow Giuliani to seek a new trial to challenge the amount of damages…but not a full appeal.”
Incredible. Where can Giuliani file a full appeal?
The USA just keeps circling the drain.
I don’t understand this gross travesty of justice. We ALL saw Ruby Freeman and her larcenous daughter wait until the Republican vote counters left, then removed suitcases of bogus ballots out from under the table. We ALL then watched them put the ballots through the scanners over and over again. So how on earth is Guiliani found guilty of anything and these crooks deserving money FROM him? They should be in jail for the rest of their miserable criminal lives.
To add insult to injury Pantload Joe gave these vote thieves a medal.

Ruby and her daughter are guilty as Hell.
She’s yet another duplicitous reprehensible authoritarian. It seems to be a common trait with Judges Howell, Kaplan, and Engoron.

Rudy Giuliani ordered to pay nearly $150 million in damages CNN
A Washington, DC, jury on Friday ordered Rudy Giuliani to pay more than $148 million to two Georgia election workers for the harm caused by defamatory statements he made following the 2020 election. December, 2023.
“Over a five-month span, former President Donald Trump was charged in four criminal cases. In Washington, D.C., he faces four felony counts for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. In Georgia, he faces 13 felony counts for his election interference in that state.”
Trump’s 91 criminal charges and where they stand.
From: Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington website
Jan 11, 2024 — As of December 2023, Donald Trump has been personally charged with 91 criminal offenses in four criminal cases.
Judge Beryl Howell was confirmed by a voice vote in the Senate December 22, 2010. No Republican Senators called for a recorded vote or offered opposition to her appointment. The uniparty hard at work packing the federal courts with far left judges.
With all the new news of election fraud in that State, another trial would be interesting…
Giulliani needs help and he is so loyal to The Donald that he put himself in deep legal jeopardy. Rudy recently declared bankruptcy.HIs biggest mistake was believing that the lefty judges would still allow him due process, which was not the case.
THe Dems keel hauled him over the Freemans who were video taped recounting thousands of votes for Biden over and over, in the middle of the night after they closed the count down with Trump leading, due to an alleged water break at the facility ( entirely fabricated.).
Rudy is a victim of Georgia Lawfare.
Seems to me, Rudy’s the one who should be receiving a judgment.
Guiliani exposed the BIDEN CRIME FAMILY and it’s connection to Ukraine and Hunter’s laptop BEFORE the 2020 election. The previous court case was a travesty and “payback.”
You can’t cheat an honest man?
