The State of New York has suspended Rudy Giuliani’s law license over his claims of fraud in the 2020 election, according to a court decision released Thursday.
The decision states:
Respondent was admitted to practice as an attorney and counselor at law in the State of New York on June 25, 1969, under the name Rudolph William Giuliani. He maintains a law office within the First Judicial Department.
For the reasons that follow, we conclude that there is uncontroverted evidence that respondent communicated 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. These false statements were made to improperly bolster respondent’s narrative that due to widespread voter fraud, victory in the 2020 United States presidential election was stolen from his client. We conclude that respondent’s conduct immediately threatens the public interest and warrants interim suspension from the practice of law, pending further proceedings before the Attorney Grievance Committee.
The ruling stated that Giuliani’s suspension is “interim,” and that his statements about election fraud were made “knowingly.” Though he has First Amendment rights, the court noted, he is also bound by rules of professional conduct.

“Since Giuliani hurt Trump more than helped him, I don’t have much sympathy. He was very much all talk and no action, and most of his talk was speculative, not substantive or actionable. He accomplished nothing other than embarrass Trump.”
Guiliani is a nat’l hero (his actions on 9/11 and sticking by Trump through thick and thin and you should be ashamed for knocking him. Trump doesn’t, but you do. And by doing so you are condoning the Gestapo tactics being used against Rudy by the fascist state of NY. Disgusting.
They want any lawyer who even thinks about defending Trump to have second thoughts. And they are terrified of their election fraud being proven.
Maybe Ron DeSantis should consider issuing him one from the State of Florida. He did the best that could be done under the circumstances.
Where have you been, under a rock? Did you miss Rudy and his team briefing the legislatures from AZ, PA, MI, and GA? Did you fail to read Peter Navarro's three volume Report on voter fraud that was based on the information and affidavits collected by Rudy and his team?
The AZ audit is based on Rudy's investigations. Thousands of signed affidavits and actual voter data, which are substantive and actionable.
Yes but Giuliani was not Trump's first or second pick. The others abandoned Trump out of fear that what just happened to Rudy.
‘
Gaetz and Giuliani are bring pursued simply because they dared to talk about Hunter and the Biden family Foreign Cash Operation.
Just that simple.
‘
Just more communist democrat thuggery. If it isn’t stopped, it will be released upon the people, thus their need to disarm the citizens.

Get off his back. H is on our side and he is being treated unfairly.
Yes. What this means is Giuiliani was intentionally misleading the court (with thousands of sworn affidavits, none of which has resulted in any witness being tried for perjury). Therefore his communication with a client (Trump) in this case is not priviledged. From NoLo:
“But, according to the crime-fraud exception to the privilege, a client’s communication to her attorney isn’t privileged if she made it with the intention of committing or covering up a crime or fraud.”
The actions are considered by this judge are fraudulent in nature, as if Giuiliani knew what he was saying was factually false. Therefore they can go after any communication regarding this case.
This is a political hit job.
He turned the Hunter Biden laptop contents over to the NY Post ...
He will be vindicated when election fraud of an unprecedented level is proven in Maricopa County, AZ & Fulton County, GA.
Less witches hunt.
More star chamber.
So basically they suspend his law license because they feel he lied.
Isn’t lie what lawyers do?
Defense lawyer: Your honor, my client is innocent.(knowing he’s guilty)
I wonder if President Trump will be successful in holding his rally in Ohio on June 26th?
They used lawfare to break Sarah Palin by driving her to near bankruptcy. I think it destroyed her marriage.
Fascism in action.
What if the audits prove that the election was fraud?
Are they (the bar) going to be disbarred?
Standards?? If lying is a case for disbarment then why is Cuomo in office? He murdered nursing home residents and covered it up.
