Rudy Giuliani was charged with ethics by the Disciplinary Board in Washington, D.C., on Friday for promoting baseless allegations of fraud in the 2020 presidential election before a federal court in Pennsylvania, threatening his ability to practice law in the city.
The DC Disciplinary Bar said he had violated Pennsylvania’s rules of professional conduct by filing a lawsuit and stating “issues in them without negligent basis in law and the facts thereof” and involved in “conduct that violates the administration of justice.” , according to the documentation.
The complaint alleges that Giuliani did not provide sufficient sources to prove his allegations that election fraud was committed in Pennsylvania.
Giuliani “further justified his allegations of fraud against” the defendants in the case by promising the district court that “statistical analysis will show that more than 70,000 postal bulletins and other postal bulletins supporting [President] Biden was counted incorrectly, “but the defendant should have known that the ‘evidence’ he provided was based on false or erroneous statistics and analysis,” the complaint said.
The former mayor of New York also claims that there are 300 statements and swearing-in statements that would provide evidence of the said fraud, which is taking place in the state, according to the documentation.

However, the complaint states that “the oaths, declarations and statements he made to the district court and other bodies are (a) unsupported, (b) not related to [former President] Trump’s voters (c) include behavior outside the seven defendants’ constituencies, and (d) on their own terms, isolated incidents that could not affect the outcome of the presidential election, offsetting Biden’s majority of more than 80,000 votes.
Giuliani was admitted to the DC Bar in 1976, but in 2002 his status became inactive. Last year, the appeals department of the Supreme Court of New York suspended his license for law in that state.
The Hill turned to Giuliani and Giuliani’s lawyer for comment.
