Rudy Giuliani has faced several legal consequences tied to his actions following the 2020 U.S. presidential election:

Defamation Lawsuit (Georgia): Giuliani was ordered to pay $148 million to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, two Georgia election workers, for falsely claiming they manipulated ballots. He settled this defamation case in January 2025 after initially filing for bankruptcy to avoid payment.

Disbarment: He was disbarred in New York and Washington, D.C., for making false statements about the 2020 election, violating legal ethics as Trump’s attorney.

Criminal Indictments:

Georgia: Indicted for efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, including charges related to false claims of election fraud and pressuring state officials.

Arizona: Indicted for his role in attempting to subvert the state’s 2020 election results, part of a broader scheme to promote alternate electors.

These legal issues stem from his actions as Trump’s lawyer, pushing unfounded election fraud claims. No convictions have been reported as of September 1, 2025, but the indictments remain active.
