**Giuliani Ordered to Forfeit $6 Million Apartment in Election Workers Defamation Case**
A federal judge's ruling mandates Rudy Giuliani to relinquish valuable assets, including his Manhattan apartment, due to a defamation lawsuit by Georgia election workers.
The ruling follows a previous successful lawsuit by Freeman and Moss, where they won $140 million after Giuliani falsely accused them of election fraud during the 2020 presidential election. The court's decision not only includes the luxury Manhattan apartment but also mandates Giuliani to surrender numerous high-value items such as watches, sports memorabilia, and a significant sum owed to him by Trump's campaign.
An additional component of this case prompted Freeman and Moss to seek further asset seizures, targeting Giuliani's properties in both New York and Florida, and an array of luxury personal items, including a Mercedes-Benz and valuable sports rings. The judge's detailed order includes a timeline for Giuliani to comply with these asset turnovers, while he continues to grapple with legal challenges, including felony charges related to a "fake elector scheme."
Giuliani has recently faced a loss of legal standing and financial collapse, underscored by an earlier bankruptcy filing that has since been dismissed, stripping him of creditor protections. The ongoing litigation highlights the residual impacts of Giuliani's accusations which led to personal conflicts and threats against the election workers, showcasing the intricate and often tumultuous landscape of post-election legal battles.
In summary, Giuliani is compelled to surrender significant assets due to his defamatory claims against election officials, revealing the profound legal consequences of his actions during the contentious 2020 election aftermath.
