Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor and U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, has been disbarred in New York. The decision, handed down on Tuesday by the Appellate Division First Department in New York, cited Giuliani's repeated false statements about Donald Trump's 2020 election loss. Giuliani's efforts to subvert the 2020 presidential election by backing Trump's false claims were central to the court's ruling. The state appeals court's disbarment marks a significant fall from grace for Giuliani, who once served as a prominent legal advisor to Trump.
