COURTHOUSE,
Feb 19 – In Ruby
Freeman's and Wandrea' Moss'
ongoing attempt to collect
from Rudy Giuliani, trial was
to begin at 9 am on January
16. Inner City Press was there
- but Giuliani was not. The
case settled in the early
afternoon.
In the
courtroom of U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Lewis J. Liman, the
plaintiffs' lawyer hugged
Giulani's counsel, and shook
hands with Andrew Giuliani.
Back on October
8, a motion to intervene by
Andrew Giuliani: "the Mayor
gifted those World Series
rings to his son." Filing on
Patreon here.
On October 22
Judge Liman wrote that
Giuliani is "ordered to
transfer all personal property
specified in the list below at
pp. 16-18" - full list on
Patreon here
On January 6
after more, Judge Liman
awarded adverse inferences as
a sanction, keeping the
contempt motion and schedule
under advisement, thread.

The January 14
final pre-trial conference,
upholding the barring as
witnesses of Goodman and
Monsignor Placa, Inner City
Press live tweeted here.
Then the
settlement: Giuliani keeps
property, but compensation
paid.
Then on February
12 a motion to intervene:
"Global Data Risk, LLC holds a
continuing, valid, binding,
enforceable, non-avoidable and
properly perfected security
interest in and lien on
defendant Rudolph W.
Giuliani’s 1,430 shares of
stock in, and the proprietary
lease for, Apartment 10W with
45 East 66th Owners Corp. Full
filing on Patreon here
On February 14
Judge Liman set a schedule:
"ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE: LET
plaintiffs Ruby Freeman and
Wandrea' Moss and defendant
Rudolph W. Giuliani show cause
before this Court o February
25, 2025 at 10:00a.m." - order
on Patreon here
Late on February
14 counsel to the Georgia poll
workers filed opposition to
intervention which they said
would "throw a wrench into a
hard-won settlement." On
Saturday February 15 Andrew
Giuliani joined in the
opposition.
On February 18
(text only order) then spelled
out on February 19, Judge
Liman denied the motion: "intervention
would unduly delay or
prejudice the rights of the
parties. If GDR was “permitted
to intervene at this late
date, there is no question
that the settlement . . .
would be jeopardized.” The
motion for intervention is
denied." Full order on Patreon
here.
