US EditionJudge rules Giuliani must pay ex-defense team $1.4M
Rudy Giuliani owes $1.36 million plus interest to his former lawyers for defense work from 2019 to 2023, having paid only $214,000 of nearly $1.6 million billed, court records show.
- Judge Arthur Engoron ruled on Tuesday that Rudy Giuliani must pay $1.36 million plus interest to his former lawyers for unpaid legal fees.
- The ruling came as a result of a 2023 legal action initiated by Giuliani’s former attorney Robert Costello and his previous law firm, which sought payment for outstanding legal fees.
- Costello served as Giuliani’s attorney in multiple civil cases and represented him during investigations and disciplinary actions related to his involvement as Donald Trump's personal lawyer following the 2020 election.
- Engoron dismissed Giuliani's assertion that he had not been billed, highlighting that he had remitted only a fraction of the outstanding legal fees, with the balance approaching $1.6 million.
- This judgment adds to Giuliani's legal and financial troubles, including his disbarment for baseless election fraud claims and ongoing criminal charges.
