One would literally be hard pressed to make up. . . a tale of such shocking hubris, from whole cloth, about a former US Attorney, and Mayor of the nation's largest city. It would be thought. . . unimaginable, just two decades ago. But we are now in the age of "pals of Tangerine" -- people who think the law doesn't apply. . . to them.
This letter speaks volumes, about the abuses Rudy is attempting to heap, broadly on the judicial system -- and on the individual Georgia women / the parties he has injured, more specifically:
. . .Preparing those issues for trial by January 16, 2025 -- including by having adequate documents in time to address them at Defendant’s deposition -- will require Defendant’s prompt compliance with discovery requests. Unfortunately, Mr. Giuliani has already demonstrated his unwillingness to comply with discovery deadlines in No. 24-cv-6563, ignoring the first set of RFPs filed in that case altogether. See No. 24-cv-6563, ECF No. 92.
Meanwhile, in seeking withdrawal from this case, Mr. Giuliani’s would-be outgoing counsel have hinted that Mr. Giuliani’s underlying legal position regarding his discovery obligations is so beyond the pale that it cannot even be said out loud. See ECF No. 126 (Mr. Giuliani’s counsel stating that “when ‘addressing’ discovery disputes, we cannot truthfully and completely state Defendant’s position -- to Plaintiffs’ counsel, or on the public record of these actions -- without prejudicing Defendant”). In short, there is no reason to believe that discovery in this action will be any different than discovery in No. 24-cv-6563. Even apart from the impending trial date, shortening the default period for Defendant to respond to discovery requests in this action to 14 days will maximize the efficiency with which the Court can address the inevitable issues with Defendant’s productions (or lack thereof) as they arise. . . .
Now you know. Onward, resolutely.
