On Tuesday, US District Judge Lewis Liman, sitting in Manhattan, called for the transfer to occur in the next seven days, to pay the millions in damages owed to the election workers.
Giuliani, who for many years served as a personal lawyer to Donald Trump, helped spread baseless rumours of voter fraud after the ex-president's defeat in the 2020 presidential race.
A federal jury said the 80-year-old should pay the two women a total of $148m. Giuliani, a Republican who made a brief presidential run in 2008, has since tried to file for bankruptcy, but that case was dismissed.
Those items will be put into a receivership controlled by the two election workers. Yet, the judge did give the election workers permission to go after almost $2m in unpaid legal fees Giuliani said he was owed from the Trump campaign.
