Summary
Rudy Giuliani has been ordered to pay approximately $300,000 to Global Data Risk for forensic accounting services related to his now-aborted bankruptcy proceedings. This ruling comes as Giuliani faces significant financial challenges, including nearly $150 million in debt and ongoing legal battles stemming from his actions after the 2020 presidential election.
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court in White Plains, New York, ruled that Giuliani owed this amount for the accounting firm’s efforts to trace his financial assets. Judge Sean Lane emphasized the lack of financial transparency on Giuliani’s part, which necessitated the extensive work by Global Data Risk. Giuliani had previously sought to reduce the fees claimed by the firm, arguing that certain charges were excessive, but the court largely sided with the accounting company. This financial obligation is part of a broader context where Giuliani is entangled in multiple legal and financial issues, including a defamation lawsuit that resulted in a $150 million judgment against him for falsely accusing two Georgia election workers of fraud. The ruling further complicates Giuliani’s financial situation as he faces potential asset seizures by creditors.
