Giuliani was lead counsel for ex-president Donald Trump.

The Manhattan-based appeals court on Thursday, held that he had “communicated demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers and the public.”

But the U.S. Electoral College formally certified Biden as the nation’s president, after he secured an electoral majority of 306 votes.

Reuters reports that Giuliani’s suspension in the state was interim sequel to further instruction from the state attorney.

“These false statements were made to improperly bolster (Giuliani’s) narrative that due to widespread voter fraud, victory in the 2020 United States presidential election was stolen from his client,” the court ruled.
