Hizzoner has done essentially nothing meaningful, to comply in good faith with orders stretching back to October of 2024. He has willfully evaded clear commands, hidden assets and refused to produce title documents to that Lauren Bacall Mercedes (that once was his), and his NYC Co-Op -- in the latter case, refusing to help remove his ex-wife's name from the title documents, though his divorce decree lists him as the sole owner (they were divorced decades ago). Moreover, his bankruptcy filing listed it as solely his asset.
Here's the latest, overnight -- but this is a hearing for remand, now -- in essensce:
. . .ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY DEFENDANT RUDOLPH W. GIULIANI SHOULD NOT BE HELD IN CONTEMPT FOR FAILING TO COMPLY WITH THE TURNOVER ORDERS granting [170] Motion for Order to Show Cause.
ORDERED that the Motion is GRANTED; and it is THEREFORE ORDERED, pursuant to this Court's inherent contempt authority, that Defendant shall appear before this court on the 3rd day of January, 2025, at 10 a.m. at the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse for the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, 500 Pearl Street, Courtroom 15C, New York, NY 10007, to show cause, if any there be, why this Court should not find him in civil contempt for failing to comply with the Turnover Orders, and impose such relief as it deems appropriate.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that any opposition to this Order to Show Cause shall be filed by December 24, 2024, and any reply shall be filed by December 30, 2024.
SO ORDERED.. (Signed by Judge Lewis J. Liman on 12/18/2024) (ks) (Main Document 175 replaced on 12/18/2024) (ks). Modified on 12/18/2024. . .
He has a similar hearing in DC about 10 days after this one -- but he may need bail money to get to the DC hearing. Maybe a Zoom session to DC, from the lockup -- in Manhattan?! Hilarious!
