Rudy Giuliani is asking for a homestead exemption for either his New York City penthouse or his Florida condo, one week after a federal judge ordered him to hand over the Manhattan property along with a myriad of other valuables to a pair of election workers he defamed.
The cash-strapped former New York City mayor is asking a court for an exemption for one of his two properties. He is primarily seeking to protect his Palm Beach condo from getting into the hands of Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss — whom he defamed and owes $150m — but alternatively, he asked to protect his Madison Avenue co-op apartment, a Friday filing says. Both properties are thought to be worth millions.
