“Nobody seems interested” in helping Rudy Giuliani meet accounting obligations in his ongoing bankruptcy case, lawyers for the former New York mayor, presidential hopeful and Trump attorney said in a court filing on Tuesday.
“Unfortunately, the debtor originally had an accountant who was helping,” the filing said. “However, he had a change of heart and indicated that he no longer wished to help prepare the monthly operating reports.
“The debtor advised that he has reached out to a number of accounting firms and CPAs seeking their help, however, no one seems interested in taking the assignment.”
Giuliani was once a giant of US politics, mayor of New York on 9/11 and a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008. After that effort failed he went into the lucrative consulting business but in recent years he has become something of a political pariah, in large part due to his work for and on behalf of Donald Trump and incidents of controversial behaviour.
