Rudy Giuliani satisfies judgment in defamation case brought by former Georgia election workers

Rudy Giuliani has “fully satisfied” a judgment against him after defaming two former Georgia election workers by falsely accusing them of election fraud in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential contest, according to a federal court filing Monday.

The judgment was satisfied on Friday, the filing said, and comes after Giuliani reached a settlement agreement with Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Wandrea “Shaye” Moss in January.

A jury had awarded the former election workers $148 million in damages after a four-day trial in December 2023. The award was subsequently reduced to $146 million by a judge.

Monday’s court filing listed interest and attorneys fees on top of that figure.
