Dominion lawyers warn ‘imminent’ legal action against Rudy Giuliani

Attorneys for Dominion Voting Systems have demanded Rudy Giuliani and White House counsel Pat Cipollone preserve their records related to the company at the centre of their conspiracies and baseless claims of election fraud following the results of the 2020 presidential election .

The attorneys for the company – who have also issued warnings to Sidney Powell to retract her “wild, knowingly baseless and false accusations” about the company’s voting machines – urged Donald Trump’s personal attorney to halt "defamatory claims" in its instructions to “preserve and retain all documents relating to Dominion” and his “smear campaign” against the company.

Attorneys told Mr Cipollone that their request for document preservation also includes conversations White House officials had with attorneys like Mr Giuliani or Ms Powell about the company.

Defamation lawyers Tom Clare and Megan Meier from Clare Locke LLP warned Mr Giuliani that “litigation regarding these issues is imminent."
