"Tom Girardi Declared Fit for Trial in $15 Million Client Theft Case"

Tom Girardi, a former high-profile lawyer and estranged husband of reality TV star Erika Jayne, has been declared competent to stand trial for allegedly embezzling over $15 million from clients. Despite his defense claiming he is incapacitated due to Alzheimer's disease, a federal judge has sealed the order for his competency. Girardi, who was disbarred in 2022 and faces additional charges in Chicago, could face a lengthy prison sentence if convicted.
