A judge indicated on Wednesday that he is inclined to throw out Rudy Giuliani's bankruptcy case following an agreement between the former New York City mayor and his major creditors. The creditors, two ex-Georgia election workers who won a $148 million defamation judgment against Giuliani, believe that dismissal is the best course of action.
The case has been marred by allegations of Giuliani flouting bankruptcy laws and potentially concealing assets. If the case is dismissed, it would halt Giuliani's pursuit of bankruptcy protection but would not absolve him of his debts. Creditors could explore other legal avenues to recover some of the owed money, such as seizing his properties and assets through a court order.
