The defamation case stems from Giuliani’s repeated false accusations of election fraud against Freeman and Moss, two Georgia election workers who became the targets of a vicious smear campaign in the wake of the 2020 presidential election. Giuliani’s legal troubles also extend to a contempt proceeding in Washington, D.C., over his continued defamation of the two women.
Giuliani NY Trial : What’s Next for Giuliani in Court
Giuliani’s legal challenges are far from over. The Manhattan trial is set to go forward as planned, despite the multiple obstacles and delays his defense team has attempted. With the trial date fast approaching, it remains to be seen how the court will resolve the issue of Giuliani’s assets and whether the former mayor can successfully navigate the growing number of legal battles he faces.
Giuliani’s attorneys, including Cammarata, will continue to represent him in this case, as well as his ongoing effort to overturn the $148 million judgment on appeal. Meanwhile, Freeman and Moss, the plaintiffs, are represented by a team of lawyers from Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP, United to Protect Democracy, and DuBose Miller LLC.
