Rudy Giuliani, the former Mayor of New York City and former lawyer of President Donald Trump, has reached a settlement with Dominion Voting Systems in a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit.
According to The Hill, the agreement, filed in court on Friday, addresses the false claims of election fraud he made after the 2020 presidential election.
Court filings show both parties agreed to “dismissal of all claims and causes of action asserted in this matter by Dominion against Giuliani with prejudice.”
Each side will cover its own legal expenses, though the specific settlement amount has not been disclosed.
The North American company filed a lawsuit in early 2021, accusing Giuliani of making defamatory claims that the company was involved in election rigging and voter fraud. Dominion argued that Giuliani falsely accused them of manipulating votes to change the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.
This settlement follows Dominion’s $787 million agreement with Fox Corp. (NASDAQ: FOX) in April 2023.
President Trump's former attorney also recently settled a separate $148 million case involving Georgia election workers in January, with terms undisclosed.
This settlement followed efforts by the workers to seize his assets after his bankruptcy dismissal last year.
Earlier this month, a New York judge ordered Giuliani to pay $1.36 million plus interest to his former defense attorney’s firm for unpaid legal bills.
