Rudy Giuliani – or at least his son Andrew – gets to keep his three World Series rings. For now.
U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman ordered Giuliani on Tuesday to surrender his property to settle a $145 million civil judgment for defaming two Georgia election workers after the 2020 election by falsely saying they stuffed ballot boxes.
The belongings at stake include a luxury New York apartment on Madison Avenue and a $2 million claim for legal fees against former President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee.
Liman ruled that seizing the property would make it easier for election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea Moss to sell them. Giuliani had asked to delay trying to collect the legal fees from Trump until Nov. 6 to avoid influencing the election with “inaccurate” claims sparking a “media frenzy,” a proposal Liman ridiculed.
