Summary
Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, former Georgia election workers, seek to hold Rudy Giuliani in contempt of court for violating a permanent injunction against defaming them. Despite an earlier $148 million defamation judgment and a court order barring further false accusations, Giuliani allegedly made harmful claims on his online broadcasts. His legal team argues for his First Amendment rights amidst ongoing attempts to collect his remaining assets. A judge has scheduled a response deadline and a hearing to evaluate the contempt motion.
