Judge accuses Rudy Giuliani of lying about why his attorneys quit in defamation case
In newly unsealed court documents, Rudy Giuliani's former attorneys said they quit because he "would not participate" in court-mandated discovery.

The attorneys who unceremoniously quit representing Rudy Giuliani in his receivership case concerning the $148 million he owes for defaming two Georgia election workers told the court they were forced to part ways with the former New York City mayor after he informed them that he “would not participate” in discovery for the case. Monday’s ruling to unseal portions of the attorneys’ motions to withdraw was “necessary to protect the integrity of the court and its orders.
“Defendant has informed us that he will not participate in electronic discovery in the Homestead Action,” Attorney Kenneth Caruso wrote in a previously sealed motion for him and co-counsel David Labkowski to withdraw. “Specifically, he has informed us that he will not identify or provide access to his electronic device(s) for imaging by an electronics-discovery vendor, which we have identified. We have a fundamental disagreement with that position. Defendant’s position also constitutes a failure to cooperate with us in the representation and renders it unreasonably difficult for us to carry out our employment effectively.”
