Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor who built a career as an uncompromising crime-fighter, has been permanently disbarred from practising law in Washington DC due to his actions attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
The DC bar's board of responsibility recommended in 2022 that Giuliani's law licence be indefinitely revoked after its investigators found him guilty of unethical conduct over inaccurate and unsupported claims he made in testimony to a federal court in Pennsylvania while disputing the 2020 election results.
Giuliani was suspended in 2021 after the New York court notified of similarities with the findings, yet the DC ruling was based more on his failure to respond to procedural requests.
Ted Goodman, Giuliani's spokesman, labeled the decision as an absolute travesty and a total miscarriage of justice.
