Rudy Giuliani draws rebuke for a courtroom outburst accusing judge in assets case of being unfair

NEW YORK (AP) — In an angry outburst in a New York courtroom, Rudy Giuliani has accused a judge of making wrong assumptions about him after ordering him to turn over most of his assets to two election poll workers who won a libel case against him. Federal Judge Lewis J. Liman responded at a Tuesday hearing to Giuliani’s complaints by saying he’s not going to let the former New York City mayor blurt things out anymore unless he’s a sworn witness. The exchange came at a hearing in which the judge refused to delay a Jan. 16 trial over the disposition of Giuliani’s Florida residence and his World Series rings.
