Judge Threatens Giuliani With Contempt Over Defamation Case

A federal judge in New York has threatened Rudy Giuliani with contempt for failing to surrender personal property to Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea Moss, to whom he owes nearly $150 million for defamation. Judge Lewis Liman criticized Giuliani's lawyer for suggesting that he does not know the whereabouts of his assets, stating that all property must be turned over by November 14. The judge emphasized that Giuliani's claims of not being able to comply would only be accepted if he demonstrates genuine efforts to do so. Freeman and Moss allege that Giuliani has been hiding his property, including luxury watches and a Mercedes-Benz, after a jury found him liable for defaming them. Despite the legal turmoil, Giuliani maintained he would comply with the order while expressing his commitment to his beliefs. The situation has escalated tensions between the parties, with both sides accusing each other of misbehavior during the court proceedings.
