Lawyer Rudy Giuliani faced a setback as a federal judge in New York dismissed his bankruptcy case on Friday. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane’s decision cited Giuliani’s failure to disclose certain assets and income streams, lack of cooperation, and repeated failures to meet reporting obligations essential for a debtor in possession.
The ruling paves the way for Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Wandrea “Shaye” Moss, Georgia election workers who secured $148 million in damages from Giuliani in a defamation lawsuit last year, to pursue collection efforts against him.
Giuliani, known for his role as former New York City mayor and personal attorney to Donald Trump, has yet to publicly comment on the ruling. However, reactions on social media, particularly on X (formerly Twitter), were swift and pointed.
Many users expressed satisfaction with the judge’s decision, viewing it as a form of accountability for Giuliani’s actions. One commentator quipped, “Giuliani went from America’s mayor to America’s most wanted,” reflecting the dramatic shift in public perception.
The development underscores ongoing legal challenges for Giuliani, whose legal troubles have garnered significant attention in recent years. As discussions unfold online, the case continues to draw interest and commentary across various social media platforms.
