Rudy Giuliani Has 2 Weeks to Pay Ex-Wife $225K or Face Jail Time
Source: NBC New York
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani skipped out on a court hearing in Manhattan Friday where a judge ordered the 78-year-old to pay his ex-wife over $225,000 as part of a divorce settlement, or he could wind up in jail.
Judge Michael Katz said Giuliani is in contempt of court and has until next month to make the payment, including $10,000 in attorney fees, as first reported by the NY Post. If Giuliani doesn't pay by Oct. 7, he could be arrested.
Judith Giuliani had asked the judge to hold her former husband in contempt for falling behind on his payments under their 2019 divorce settlement.
During Giuliani's last court appearance, he told the judge that his third wife's claim that he owes her $260,000 is a gross exaggeration and he really owes her about $50,000.

Are/were you a NYCr? I'm B&B. 🗽🥰👍

I'm thinking the more police? Which started under Mayor Dinkins & Pres Clinton.
As for 9-11?
Because the radios couldn't talk to each other?
Or bc he had security center either in one of the Towers or 10 story buildings next to them?
Something else? 👍

(1,004 posts)and so many others. How do they get away with not showing up for court hearings and grand jury subpoenas? I mean I know the rich are America's Royalty and all but dammit why don't the courts do their jobs and issue warrants for these assholes?

In my volunteer nonprofit legal work, I recall a case where a dentist took her professor husband to court for nonpayent and he ended up in the slammer.
There were many others; this one stands out.

Don't know how long they were married for, but the $225K should have a few zeros added, because . . . well, Rudy, you know.
Rudy and Judy.
that made me gag.

(32,356 posts)He did that years ago to hide his assets from the ex-wife's lawyers. Those lawyers don't even know the extent of his wealth, and somehow they came up with the number of $260,000 ... and now he refuses to pay it.
