Former New York City mayor and Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani filed for bankruptcy Thursday, according to a court filing.
Giuliani filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy less than a week after a jury ordered him to pay $148 million in damages to Fulton County election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, who sued him for defamation.
He estimates his liabilities are between $100,000,001 and $500 million.
