The top line here is that the trial on sanctions remains on January 16 -- which keeps Rudy from attending the inaugural (ahh. . . cue the tiny violins!), he says.
But when Rudy heard the judge rule definitively that Rudy had to be in court in Manhattan all day on the 16th to 19th -- he started shouting at the able USDC Judge.
The very capable InnerCityPress covered it, in real time, thus -- over at X-itter:
. . .Judge: Your client was US Attorney here. The notion that he can't apply for a title [is preposterous].
Rudy: You are against me! They have put a stop order on my Social Security account!
Judge: I permitted Mr. Giuliani to speak -- but I won't do so in the future -- I'll be required to act. . . .
That too would be contempt -- and a possible night in jail, courtesy USDC Judge Liman.
Hilarious -- and a former US Attorney well knows that is what he means... by "required to act".
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
