Georgia election workers sue Rudy Giuliani again after $148M defamation ruling
NY Post
Two Georgia election workers who won a $148 million judgment against former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani last week have sued him again for continuing to maintain that they committed ballot fraud in 2020.
Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Andrea “Shaye” Moss, filed a request Monday for a permanent injunction against Giuliani, which would prevent him from speaking publicly about them, Axios reported.
Lawyers for the pair said in their DC federal court complaint that “Giuliani continues to spread the very same lies for which he has already been held liable,” citing remarks the 79-year-old made to reporters immediately after the awarding of damages Friday.
“Defendant Giuliani’s statements, coupled with his refusal to agree to refrain from continuing to make such statements, make clear that he intends to persist in his campaign of targeted defamation and harassment. It must stop,” the attorneys wrote.
“In these unique circumstances, the proper remedy is a targeted injunction barring Defendant Giuliani from continuing to repeat the very falsehoods about Plaintiffs that have already been found and held, conclusively, to be defamatory.”
The former personal lawyer to President Donald Trump told The Post in an interview on Friday that he lacked the assets to pay even the $43 million in damages initially sought by the workers and was “going to fight this case until I die.”
