Rudy Giuliani Faces Trial Over Assets

Rudy Giuliani is facing a federal trial to determine whether he must surrender his Florida condominium and three Yankees World Series rings to satisfy a $148 million defamation judgment awarded to two Georgia election workers. The trial, which begins Thursday, will focus on whether Giuliani can prove the condo is his primary residence and whether the rings, which he claims belong to his son Andrew, are exempt from seizure. Giuliani has been found in contempt of court for failing to provide asset information and for continuing to defame the election workers. His legal team argues that he is not impoverished but lacks access to his assets due to ongoing legal issues. The judge has already barred Giuliani from introducing certain evidence due to his contempt ruling, and two last-minute witnesses were rejected from testifying. This legal battle adds to the myriad of investigations and civil cases surrounding the former mayor.
