Giuliani now owes over $230,000 after defaming two Georgia election workers

Rudy Giuliani has failed to pay more than $132,000 in sanctions he faces for failing to respond to parts of a lawsuit from two Georgia election workers, according to a court filing.

In addition, US District Judge Beryl Howell on Friday ordered the former New York mayor to pay an additional $104,000 to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, a mother and daughter he defamed, for additional legal fees they've incurred because of his failure to respond to parts of their lawsuit.

This is the latest difficulty for Giuliani as he faces fallout from his work for Donald Trump after the 2020 election.

Giuliani has struggled to pay legal bills in recent months, including related to the lawsuit from Freeman and Moss.

The bill of $132,856 is only a small chunk of the financial burden Giuliani is currently under, largely because of his ongoing legal troubles, and it's one he's known of for several weeks.

But a court filing on Thursday confirmed Giuliani has not paid the amount to Moss and Freeman, which a judge ordered to offset some of their attorneys' fees.

"As of the date of this filing, Defendant Giuliani has failed to take any of the actions, or to cause the Giuliani Businesses to take any of the actions, so-ordered in the Sanctions Order," Moss and Freeman's lawyers wrote on Thursday, according to the filing. "Plaintiffs are considering what further relief may be appropriate."
