The Misadventures of Rudy Giuliani

Ranting Rudy Giuliani encourages girlfriend and fired co-host to sue WABC over ‘hostile work environment,’ but there’s just one problem

 

Rudy Giuliani, while ranting over the weekend that his WABC radio show was canceled for using the platform to repeat 2020 election conspiracy theories despite warnings from higher-ups, noticeably encouraged Dr. Maria Ryan, his ousted “Uncovering the Truth” co-host and girlfriend, to sue the station over a “hostile work environment” for women. But there’s just one problem: Giuliani himself faces a hostile work environment lawsuit brought by his former director of business development.

 

During a late Friday livestream on YouTube, Giuliani blasted WABC for not only showing him the door, but also doing the same for co-host Ryan. While doing so, Giuliani accused WABC of fostering a “hostile work environment” for women and stated that Ryan had a case.

 

“Unfortunately, she’s also been fired. But she’s also been treated horribly as a woman, treated horribly as a person, treated horribly as a professional. And I don’t know that she wasn’t going to leave anyway because Chad Lopez, the president of the station, creates a very hostile work environment — many women have left,” Giuliani said. “One’s on Newsmax, another’s independent. We’ll see if they’ll speak up.”

 

Minutes later, Giuliani repeated the hostile workplace allegations.

 

Giuliani does have some experience with hostile work environment litigation — as a defendant. Recall that Noelle Dunphy in May 2023 filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against Giuliani, claiming that he sexually abused her and subjected her to a hostile work environment while not paying her for her work.

Rudy Giuliani still hasn’t been served his Arizona indictment

 

Rudy Giuliani, a former U.S. attorney turned lawyer for Donald Trump, has not been served with notice of his indictment by an Arizona grand jury last month related to his alleged attempts to thwart the former president’s 2020 loss in the state, according to state prosecutors.

 

It’s not for a lack of trying.

 

A team of prosecutors and investigators for Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) has made multiple attempts to serve Giuliani a summons — essentially a formal notice that he has been criminally charged here and must appear before a judge May 21, said Richie Taylor, a spokesperson for the office.

 

A person close to Giuliani said Tuesday that he keeps a busy schedule and that the April 24 indictment hasn’t slowed him down. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss Giuliani’s activities.

 

The day after a grand jury handed down the indictment, Taylor said two agents for the state attorney general traveled to New York City, where they hoped to hand-deliver the summons to Giuliani. The agents determined that Giuliani was in his New York apartment because he had recently video streamed from his residence, he said. The agents matched the setting of the video stream with pictures of the interior of his residence from an old real estate listing that is still online.

 

A person at the building’s front desk told the agents that they were not allowed to receive service of documents. The person did not dispute that Giuliani lived there, Taylor said.

“We were not granted access,” Taylor said.

 

The attorney general’s office has also made multiple attempts to try to contact Giuliani by calling various phone numbers for him, “and none of them were successful,” Taylor said.

‘I am disturbed’: Judge overseeing Giuliani bankruptcy castigates former mayor’s ‘troubling attitude vis-à-vis the law,’ rejects bid to appeal $148 million defamation judgment

 

A federal judge in New York on Tuesday rejected a bid by Rudy Giuliani to appeal the $146 million judgment levied against him for defaming two 2020 election workers, castigating Donald Trump’s former personal attorney for his “troubling attitude” toward the law and the proceedings, which the judge said left him “disturbed.”

 

U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge for the Southern District of New York Sean H. Lane on Tuesday formally denied Giuliani’s motion to appeal the sizable judgment, emphasizing that little headway had been made in the present case due in large part to Giuliani’s failure to abide by court deadlines and rulings.

 

In explaining his reasoning, Lane said that he saw the request to appeal as little more than an “impediment to the progress of the bankruptcy,” a person with knowledge of the proceedings told Law&Crime.

 

“I could use a lot of less kind adjectives” about Giuliani, Lane said Tuesday in reference to the former New York City mayor’s behavior.

 

The judge further decried Giuliani for displaying what he characterized as a “troubling attitude vis-à-vis the law and the court system,” adding, “I am disturbed,” according to the person who witnessed the proceedings.

 

Freeman’s attorney, Rachel Strickland, told the court that Giuliani was “rope-a-doping everyone,” Law&Crime has learned, claiming that the former mayor had been spending funds to pay his girlfriend’s credit card bill while in the midst of his own bankruptcy proceedings. She also emphasized that Giuliani’s attorneys had not reached out about attempting to settle the judgment or began the process of selling off any of his several properties.

 

Giuliani’s own attorney on Tuesday conceded that his client had been inaccurate in reporting his finances, but said Giuliani’s home proceeds would be put “in escrow for creditors.”

Rudy Giuliani Slashes Price on His New York City Apartment to $5.7M

 

It’s not exactly a fire sale, but an $800,000 price reduction is rather significant.

 

Rudy Giuliani, a former mayor of New York City, is still trying to sell his East Side apartment, which he listed last summer for $6.5 million.

 

The gorgeous three-bedroom, three-bath co-op is now available for $5.7 million.

The topic of dodging subpoenas is interesting 

and I don’t really understand it behind the rules are different all over the place so you have to know what kind of subpoena it is and who issued it and it’s interesting to watch

He'd be very popular there, especially with all the convicts who were in the Mafia. Does a Whitey Bulger ending for Giuliani seem more likely now...I think so.

:Yes, he's right.  It lacked a certain je ne sais quoi.  It would have been better if it had been served to him rectally.

I'm not a lawyer, but I think the correct legal term is "servepository".

So what is the penalty if he violates this agreement?  Anything?  Obviously there's no point in financial penalties as he's already declared bankruptcy and can't pay what he owes.  Are criminal penalties on the table?  Can he be jailed?

This should have happened months ago...

 

‘The time has come’: Ticked off lawyers accuse Rudy Giuliani of possible ‘bankruptcy crimes,’ want financial watchdog to strip him of ‘control’

 

Lawyers for Rudy Giuliani’s creditors have formally asked his bankruptcy judge to appoint a trustee that would “take control” of the former NYC mayor’s finances, citing the debtor’s “dishonesty,” “incompetence,” and “gross mismanagement” throughout the months-old Chapter 11 proceedings.

 

In April, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane warned Giuliani that his creditors’ lawyers had fired a “warning shot across the bow” and could pursue “draconian requests for relief in the future,” including the potential appointment of Chapter 11 bankruptcy trustee. That trustee would be empowered to “manage the affairs of the debtor and make all decisions” about Giuliani’s property and to “propose a plan of reorganization.”

 

More recently, the judge remarked that he’s “disturbed about the status of this case” and criticized Giuliani’s “troubling attitude vis-à-vis the law and the court system.”

 

Lane’s ominous forecast has panned out, as the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors has moved for a June 17 hearing to appoint a trustee.

 

“The Committee could not agree more with the Court’s statement at the May 14 Hearing, ‘I am disturbed about the status of this case. The question is, as it always is in bankruptcy court, where do we go from here,'” the motion said. “At this point, there is only one right answer to the Court’s question: a trustee must be appointed.”

 

It’s clear from the language of the opening lines of the motion that patience has run out.

 

“More than five months ago, the Debtor commenced his bankruptcy case. One might ask what he has accomplished during that time. An objective review leads to one conclusion: he has accomplished almost nothing,” the filing said, slamming Giuliani for “filing false and misleading financial reports, delaying the inevitable monetization of his assets, ignoring this Court’s orders, trying to retain professionals and attempting to relitigate the Freeman Judgment,” the $148 million dollar Georgia election workers defamation penalty that sent the former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York into bankruptcy.

 

The committee attorneys said multiple “facts” left them no choice but to demand the appointment of a trustee that would “take control of the Debtor’s assets and financial affairs, including those of his wholly-owned businesses.”

They should put Giuliani in the same prison as all the Mafia wise guys he put away in the 70s and 80s...I can imagine a Whitey Bulger-style ending...

DC attorney discipline board recommends Rudy Giuliani be disbarred for bogus 2020 election fraud claim

 

Donald Trump’s former lawyer Rudy Giuliani is one step closer to being disbarred.

 

The professional responsibility board in Washington, DC, recommended Friday that the ex-New York mayor and federal prosecutor lose his law license because of his involvement in a bogus 2020 election fraud lawsuit.

 

Giuliani’s law license had already been suspended due to his work boosting Trump’s false assertions about his electoral loss. It is up to the DC Court of Appeals to decide whether to permanently disbar Giuliani.
