A federal judge in New York City has found Rudy Giuliani in contempt of court for failing to properly respond to information requests in a $148 million defamation judgment against him.

Summary

Rudy Giuliani was found in contempt of court for failing to comply with evidence requests in a $148 million defamation case brought by two Georgia election workers.

The judge ruled Giuliani “willfully violated” court orders, including missing a deadline to provide evidence about whether his Palm Beach condo is a primary residence or a vacation home subject to seizure.

Giuliani has surrendered some assets but failed to provide key items, such as sports memorabilia and cash account details.

A trial is set for later this month to resolve the asset dispute.

    The election sort of ruined it for me.

            So Jonathan Frakes didn’t do something crazy this election? I’m so confused why FlyingSquid can’t or doesn’t use the meme anymore.

              It’s a meme of him playing the trumpet. He’s not using it because it’s been overused to portray something that is funny / sad for the person in the article. They are just making fun of the meme without using it, it’s not related to the article other than someone playing a sad trumpet sound.

              In other words, no one feels bad for guiliani

                Thank you. I appreciate the context! I saw the memes, but if it was overused then I get it.
