Bar brings Giuliani closer to completely losing the ability to practice law in the district, coming roughlyfrom practicing in the state of New York over his erroneous claims involving election fraud.
Giuliani first granted membership to the D.C. bar in 1976 but has been an inactive member since 2002.The D.C. Office of Disciplinary Counsel filed the charge with the D.C. District of Columbia Court of Appeals. The charge centers on claims Giuliani made in a federal court in 2020 supporting a lawsuit from Trump's campaign that sought to overturn the results of the presidential election in Pennsylvania through a federal district court order.

It claimed he "brought a proceeding and asserted issues therein without a non-frivolous basis in law and fact for doing so" and "that he engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice."Read the charge:
