Tom Girardi deemed competent to stand trial on embezzlement charges.

Tom Girardi, the ex-husband of RHOBH star Erika Jayne, has been deemed mentally competent to stand trial for embezzling $18 million from clients, including victims of the Lion Air crash. A court-appointed psychologist evaluated Girardi and confirmed his competency despite an earlier Alzheimer's diagnosis. Girardi will stand trial in federal court on August 3. He was disbarred from his profession in 2022 after allegations of misappropriation of funds. Prosecutors alleged he lied to his clients and swindled them out of more than $18 million from 2010 to 2020.
