Rudy Giuliani is facing potential contempt charges from a federal judge in New York for failing to disclose court-ordered information requested by two Georgia election workers he defamed. The workers are seeking to collect on a $148 million judgment against Giuliani.

U.S. District Judge Lewis J. Liman denied Giuliani’s request for an order of protection that would have allowed him to continue withholding the information requested by Ruby Freeman and her daughter Shaye Moss. The information is related to the defamation judgment and Giuliani’s actions during pretrial discovery.

In a concise four-page order, Judge Liman pointed out Giuliani’s repeated missed deadlines and disregard for court orders pertaining to the specific information sought by the election workers. Liman also hinted at an upcoming decision on the plaintiffs’ requests to hold Giuliani in contempt for his actions.

“The law imposes consequences on parties who disregard their obligations,” Liman wrote.
