Rudy Giuliani Disbarred in New York over Efforts to Overturn 2020 Election

HeadlineJul 03, 2024

Former President Trump’s ex-lawyer Rudy Giuliani has been stripped of his license to practice law in New York over his lies and false statements about the 2020 election and his efforts to overturn Joe Biden’s victory. On Tuesday, a panel of New York appellate court judges ruled that Giuliani “not only deliberately violated some of the most fundamental tenets of the legal profession, but he also actively contributed to the national strife that has followed the 2020 Presidential election, for which he is entirely unrepentant.” Giuliani already faces criminal charges for election interference in Arizona and Georgia; his law license remains under review in Washington, D.C.
