Judge refuses to immediately shield Rudy Giuliani 'alter ego' company's bank account from defamed 2020 election workers

Defamed 2020 election workers seeking to enforce the $148 million dollar judgment they won against Rudy Giuliani in late 2023 successfully persuaded a federal judge on Thursday that the former NYC mayor’s attempt to protect the bank account of his “alter ego” company Giuliani Communications, LLC was “frivolous and must be quashed.”
The upshot of the ruling from U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman, a 2019 Donald Trump appointee, is that funds in a bank account at Parkside Financial Bank & Trust are effectively restrained — that is, frozen — as Ruby Freeman and her daughter Shaye Moss continue their efforts to collect Giuliani’s assets through turnover.
As Law&Crime reported weeks ago, Freeman and Moss asked the judge to quash Giuliani’s claimed “exemption” over the Parkside account, calling that tactic “frivolous” and asking the judge to keep a restraining notice in place until he decides on their asset “turnover motion.” The bank account at issue, the plaintiffs said, is the designated destination under an agreement with Burke Brands for wiring Giuliani “80% of net profit of each sale of Rudy Coffee” on a monthly basis.
Freeman and Moss argued that Giuliani frivolously cited a law meant to protect “natural persons” — a human person, not a corporate person — from draconian restraints, just so he could “shield” Giuliani Communications’ funds from potentially going towards paying off the massive judgment. That, the plaintiffs added, was a continuation of “evasion and obstruction” tactics that have been ongoing since they first sued Giuliani for defamation.

I'd leave immediately and wouldn't give any explanation 
Always learning something new here. Still, he has a bit of a weasel vibe about him. Just sayin'.
John Eastman, and the rest of the disbarred or soon to be disbarred Kracken lawyers. 
I know what you mean. 
No doubt 
and it's a joke for them to come to court and represent that this "coffee company" was anything but a front and serving as a conduit for movement of assets. Legitimate business effort? Sure thing because everybody knows how much everybody thinks of coffee when they hear Rudy's name.
