As you’ve probably heard by now, things have not been going super well for Rudy Giuliani for the last several years, on account of making the decision to hitch his wagon to Donald Trump—who, you may have also heard, incited a violent riot and tried to overturn the 2020 election. In addition to being criminally charged by the Fulton County district attorney for attempting to overturn the ex-president’s loss in Georgia—charges Giuliani has pleaded not guilty to—the former NYC mayor is also hemorrhaging money and unable to pay his bills. He’s now been sued twice over!
The Daily Beast reports that BST & Co. CPAs, an upstate New York accounting firm, has filed suit against Giuliani for failing to pay a single cent of the $10,000 he agreed to fork over when the company valued his business assets during his 2018 divorce from his third wife, Judith Nathan. (The company is also seeking an additional $15,000 in legal fees.) Giuliani’s spokesperson did not respond to the Daily Beast’s requests for comment. The suit comes just two months after Giuliani’s longtime attorneys sued him for roughly $1.4 million in allegedly unpaid bills. A month prior, a lawyer representing the man once known as “America’s mayor” said in court that he did not have the cash on hand to pay his debts.
Last week, Giuliani said in a court filing that he plans to testify at an upcoming civil trial that will determine how much he must pay Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, the election workers he defamed in the wake of the 2020 election; the women are seeking between $15.5 million to $43 million, plus punitive damages.
In September, Trump hosted a $100,000-a-plate fundraiser at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club so other people could help out Giuliani’s financial situation after Trump himself refused to do so personally.
