Rudy Giuliani Suspended From Practicing Law In D.C.

First, Rudy Giuliani's D.C. Law License, was put on hold for years, because he didn't Pay his Annual Bar Association and License Fees. So in 2021, when he was in Court in Wi for Trump, He shouldn't have been allowed to practice Law, after he claimed he had a D.C. License.

Now, a District of Columbia Court has Suspended Giuliani, from Practicing Law in the Nation’s Capital, roughly Two weeks after a New York Court took action against the former New York Mayor for his efforts to Overturn the 2020 Election.

Giuliani, who has Claimed rampant Fraud during the 2020 Presidential Election, will be Banned from practicing Law in Washington at least until New York resolves his Case, and possibly Longer, depending on how the District decides to Proceed on the matter, the D.C. Court of Appeals ruled, on Wednesday.

A New York Court Suspended Giuliani from the New York Bar, on June 24th, for his “false and misleading” Statements on behalf of Trump and the 2020 Election.

“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 Five-Judge New York Supreme Court Appellate Panel concluded, in a Per Curiam Opinion issued, on June 24th.

The Judges added that Giuliani’s Conduct “threatens the public interest,” therefore Warranting an Interim Suspension from Practicing Law. The Court Panel said an Interim Suspension, as Imposed on Giuliani, is an Action taken only in the most Serious Cases of alleged Misconduct.

Giuliani argued that being Punished for his Public Advocacy was a Violation of his First Amendment Free Speech Rights, according to the New York Court Order, but the Court Disagreed.

“We reject respondent’s argument,” the Court said in its, June 24th Opinion. “This disciplinary proceeding concerns the professional restrictions imposed on respondent as an attorney to not knowingly misrepresent facts and make false statements in connection with his representation of a client. It is long recognized that ‘speech by an attorney is subject to greater regulation than speech by others.’”
