A New York court suspended Rudy Giuliani from the practice of law, saying his behavior "immediately threatens the public interest"
The ruling is not a disbarment, but means Giuliani can not work as a lawyer in any capacity in the state
Judges cited the Trump lawyer's "demonstrably false and misleading statements" in justifying his suspension
Former New York City mayor and Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani has been suspended from practicing law in New York state, after an appellate court said his behavior "immediately threatens the public interest."
The ruling prevents Giuliani, the former U.S. Attorney in Manhattan, from practicing law in the state but does not strip him of his law license. The case was brought by the Attorney Grievance Committee of the state's First Judicial Department, which has jurisdiction over attorneys in Manhattan.
"We conclude that there is uncontroverted evidence that respondent communicated demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers and the public at large in his capacity as lawyer for former President Donald J. Trump and the Trump campaign in connection with Trump’s failed effort at reelection in 2020," a New York state appellate court ruled.
