NEW YORK (Reuters) -The two former Georgia election workers who won a $148 million judgment against Rudolph Giuliani filed a civil lawsuit against him on Friday, seeking to enforce a lien against his Palm Beach, Florida, condominium.
Ruby Freeman and her daughter Wandrea’ “Shaye” Moss accused Giuliani of falsely claiming that the condominium was now his primary residence, to take advantage of Florida law shielding a person’s “homestead” from efforts to satisfy a court judgment.
They said Giuliani has lived mainly or entirely elsewhere since declaring the condominium his primary residence on July 13, and accused him of “trying to ‘toy with’ Florida’s homestead exemption to shield a multi-million dollar asset from his creditors.”
A spokesperson for Giuliani did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Giuliani was ordered by a Washington jury last December to pay the $148 million to Freeman and Moss, who said he defamed them and destroyed their reputation through lies that they tried to help steal the 2020 U.S. presidential election from Donald Trump.
