Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor, federal prosecutor, and legal adviser to Donald Trump, has been disbarred in the state of New York. The decision was made by an appeals court in Manhattan, citing that Giuliani repeatedly made false statements about Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss.
Giuliani’s law license was suspended in June 2021, after the Appellate Division found his recitation of false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald Trump threatened the public interest, democracy, and the legal profession. The court’s decision to disbar Giuliani was made after a lengthy legal battle, and it is effective immediately.
Giuliani is represented by retired Judge Barry Kamins of Aidala Bertuna & Kamins. The disbarment is a significant blow to Giuliani’s professional reputation and comes after a series of legal troubles, including criminal indictments for allegedly interfering in the 2020 presidential election.
As a result of the disbarment, Giuliani will no longer be able to practice law in the state of New York. 17GEN4.com
