Former lawyer to ex-President Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, faced a setback in his attempt to appeal a defamation ruling against him. Giuliani, who served as Trump's personal attorney, had been sued by Dominion Voting Systems for spreading false claims about the integrity of the 2020 presidential election.
Giuliani's legal team filed a notice of appeal in response to the ruling that allowed Dominion's lawsuit to proceed. However, the appeal was rejected by a federal judge in Washington, D.C., who found that Giuliani's arguments lacked merit.
