A New York court disbarred Rudolph ‘Rudy’ Giuliani on Tuesday. Giuliani previously served as New York City mayor, federal prosecutor, and legal adviser to Donald Trump.
According to the Associated Press, the court found that he repeatedly made false statements about the former president’s failed second run for office in 2020.
A New York appeals court in Manhattan ruled that Giuliani be “disbarred from the practice of law, effective immediately, and until the further order of this Court, and his name stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law in the State of New York.”
The court said in its decision that Giuliani “essentially conceded” most of the facts supporting the alleged acts of misconduct. Additionally, it found that Giuliani “falsely and dishonestly” claimed during the 2020 Presidential election that thousands of votes were cast in the names of dead people in Philadelphia, including the late boxer Joe Frazier.
Rudy Giuliani also falsely claimed people were taken from nearby Camden, New Jersey, to vote illegally in the Pennsylvania city, the court said.
Giuliani’s attorney, Arthur Aidala, shared that there was “disappointment” but no surprise by the court’s ruling. He claims they “put up a valiant effort” to prevent the disbarment.
What’s Next For Rudolph ‘Rudy’ Giuliani?
Moving forward, Rudy Giuliani must “desist and refrain from practicing law in any form,” including opinions on the law and its application. He can no longer represent himself “as an attorney and counselor-at-law” in any way.
AP reports that his New York law license was already suspended before the ruling. According to court records, before pleading Trump’s case in November 2020, Giuliani, a former mob prosecutor, had not appeared in court as an attorney since 1992.
However, he became Trump’s primary mouthpiece behind his false election fraud claims. You’ll recall that such election lies helped push an angry mob of pro-Trump rioters to storm the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 in an effort to stop the certification of Biden’s victory.
Additionally, Giuliani’s L comes amid the Supreme Court inadvertently handing Trump a W on Monday (July 1). In a historic 6-3 ruling, the highest court in the U.S. ruled that ex-presidents have broad immunity from prosecution.
That update comes a month after Donald’s New York hush money trial ended with a guilty verdict on 34 charges. Their ruling also means that Donald Trump like won’t face a conviction in his pending election case in Washington, D.C. before the next presidential vote.
