DC Bar Disciplinary Board Recommends Disbarring Rudy Giuliani

The panel said disbarment is needed to protect the public, courts, and legal profession, and also to ‘deter’ other lawyers from launching similar claims.

The D.C. Bar’s disciplinary board on Friday recommended disbarring Rudy Giuliani for his involvement in “frivolous” legal efforts to challenge the 2020 election results in Pennsylvania.

The decision, which would see him lose his license to practice law in the District of Columbia, marks another legal blow for the former New York City mayor and attorney for former President Donald Trump, who alleged election fraud following the 2020 election.
