Rudy Giuliani's Absence Raises Eyebrows in Defamation Case

Rudy Giuliani fails to appear in court for a defamation case brought by two Georgia election workers, prompting criticism from the judge. Giuliani lost the case by default in August and now faces a trial to determine the amount of money he owes. The former New York mayor has made various attempts to avoid the lawsuit, but the judge has ordered him to pay $130,000 for the plaintiffs' legal fees. Giuliani is expected to testify in the upcoming trial, and his attorney indicated that he does not plan to plead the Fifth Amendment.
