Rudy Giuliani Suspended From Practicing Law In NY


In a Ruling sought by the Attorney Grievance Committee (AGC) of the First Judicial Department, a mid-level Appellate Court in New York, a Five Judge Panel implemented an Interim Suspension of Giuliani’s Law License, Pending further AGC Proceedings.

The Ruling, issued Thursday, takes effect Immediately.

“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,” the Court wrote in its Decision.

“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.”

Giuliani Lawyers, John Leventhal and Barry Kamins, called the Decision Disappointing, noting Giuliani was Suspended “prior to being afforded a hearing on the issues that are alleged.”

“This is unprecedented as we believe that our client does not pose a present danger to the public interest,” the Statement said. “We believe that once the issues are fully explored at a hearing Mr. Giuliani will be reinstated as a valued member of the legal profession that he has served so well in his many capacities for so many years.”

Giuliani also had his Law License in Washington, D.C., Suspended, when for many years, he didn't Pay his Annual License Dues/Fees.
