Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani on Friday asked the judge presiding over his Chapter 11 bankruptcy case to lift the automatic stay so that Giuliani can pursue post-judgment motions in a defamation case filed by two Georgia election workers.
Giuliani filed for bankruptcy in December, one day after he was ordered to immediately pay a $148 million judgment in the defamation case. In the Chapter 11 paperwork, when asked what type of debt he owes, Giuliani wrote “Lawsuits.”
