Giuliani tells court legal problems have taken all of his cash

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani is facing criminal charges, sanctions and hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal bills over his work as an attorney for former President Donald Trump following the 2020 election.

Giuliani said in court Monday that his legal problems have left him without cash. He seems to have responded to some of his financial issues by listing his 3-bedroom Manhattan apartment for $6.5 million, CNN reported.

In addition to the standard legal fees, a judge ordered Giuliani to pay nearly $90,000 in sanctions over a defamation case, and his company is being charged $20,000 a month to host his electronic records, $15,000 or more for a search of the aforementioned records and a $57,000 judgment for not paying the company phone bills.

The former mayor is also contesting a personal lawsuit brought by an ex-employee in May who is seeking $10 million in restitution for alleged sexual assault and harassment.

Giuliani has not provided details about his dire straits, and his attorneys wrote that "producing a detailed financial report is only meant to embarrass Mr. Giuliani and draw attention to his misfortunes."

Giuliani's law license is suspended and he is up against disbarment proceedings in D.C. and New York.

Meanwhile, a grand jury in Fulton County, Ga., earlier this week indicted Trump, Giuliani and 17 others on state charges in connection to an alleged conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election.

While Giuliani has not been charged in special counsel Jack Smith's 2020 election probe, the mayor is reportedly "Co-conspirator 1" in the four-count federal indictment of Trump.
