Dominion Drops $1.3 Billion Defamation Suit Against Giuliani After Confidential Settlement

A confidential deal closes the four-year case with terms undisclosed.

Overview

  • Both sides filed in federal court in Washington to dismiss the case with prejudice, ending Dominion’s claims against Rudy Giuliani.
  • The filing states each party will cover its own attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs, with no public disclosure of any payment or other terms.
  • Dominion sued in January 2021 over Giuliani’s repeated false assertions that its machines helped rig the 2020 election, allegations that fueled threats to election officials and eroded confidence in voting systems.
  • The resolution follows Dominion’s similar confidential settlement with Sidney Powell days earlier.
  • Giuliani continues to face significant legal and financial pressures, including a recent $1.36 million fee judgment to a former law firm and an earlier confidential settlement with two Georgia election workers, while Dominion has previously secured large settlements from Fox News and Newsmax.
