New York Suspends Rudy Giuliani Law License over Election Fraud Claims
breitbart ^ | 06/24/2021 | Joel B Pollack

The State of New York has suspended Rudy Giuliani’s law license over his claims of fraud in the 2020 election, according to a court decision released Thursday.

The decision states:

Respondent was admitted to practice as an attorney and counselor at law in the State of New York on June 25, 1969, under the name Rudolph William Giuliani. He maintains a law office within the First Judicial Department.

For the reasons that follow, we conclude that there is uncontroverted evidence that respondent communicated demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers and the public at large in his capacity as lawyer for former President Donald J. Trump and the Trump campaign in connection with Trump’s failed effort at reelection in 2020. These false statements were made to improperly bolster respondent’s narrative that due to widespread voter fraud, victory in the 2020 United States presidential election was stolen from his client. We conclude that respondent’s conduct immediately threatens the public interest and warrants interim suspension from the practice of law, pending further proceedings before the Attorney Grievance Committee.

The ruling stated that Giuliani’s suspension is “interim,” and that his statements about election fraud were made “knowingly.” Though he has First Amendment rights, the court noted, he is also bound by rules of professional conduct.

"Since Giuliani hurt Trump more than helped him, "

I'm glad to see you were influenced by the main stream media reporting.

This is so ridiculous. By this standard every defense lawyer whose client is convicted of a crime could have his license suspended for pushing a "false narrative."

The TDS is strong with this one.

Why not suspend his drivers license too? I’m serious.

Politicizes the NYS justice system. Taking the Qs from Garland’s DOJ? Democrats want us to be a third world banana republic.

Well, you see, Hillary Clinton deliberately lied and concealed physical evidence for years from the official Whitewater federal investigation. She deliberately destroyed telephones and wiped computers to hide evidence from the federal investigation looking at her email deleted that covered up her illegal State Dept servers and their fake government email-sharing id’s.

But those actual crimes can be ignored.

Claims of fraud that did happen are illegal?

So if the SDNY gets Trump indicted for anything, Rudy won’t be able to defend him. Right?

Maybe Ron DeSantis should consider issuing him one from the State of Florida. He did the best that could be done under the circumstances.”

He cant be just “issued” a license. He would have to pass the Florida Bar Exam.

As I see it this is going to continue until 2024. By then it could be past fixing since they’re on a roll regardless of laws or the constitution. Nothing stops this train they’re driving thru the heart of this nation.....regardless of the destruction left in their wake.

Biden spoke today....creepy as he could be too!

No. These investigative and disciplinary organs in the professional fields of law and medicine exist to intimidate, terrorize, and persecute political undesirables. Any later-arriving information that exonerates the people they target will not embarrass, disgrace, or discredit any of these organs, but rather will only result in these organs shifting, pivoting, changing their direction and changing their focus and emphasis, and quietly disposing of the documentary products of their earlier work directly down the memory hole.

Not necessarily. In some states, he could be waived in based on his extensive legal experience in the prior state, and based on one or more attorneys “standing up” (forget the terminology) for him in Florida.

The courts are not going to recognize the audits (the ones I assume you’re speaking of).

The courts have not been friendly to us.

Excellent summary:

An attorney can represent mass murderers, rapists and organized crime figures just fine but not Trump or anything politically unpopular.
