Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani claimed his net income is only $2,308 per month in recent federal bankruptcy court filings. The documents were submitted to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on Feb. 2.
Giuliani filed for bankruptcy last December after he lost a $148 million defamation suit filed by election workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss.

The federal bankruptcy filing ended collection efforts against Giuliani, and he wants the court to modify the judgment in his lost defamation lawsuit due to his bankruptcy. The ex-mayor claimed to have $153 million in liabilities.
Dublin alleges that Giuliani made “significant” overstatements and understatements about his assets’ worth.
The former NYC mayor claimed in the filing that his monthly expenses are $43,797 which includes $13,500 in court-ordered payments to his mother-in-law and $5,000 in alimony.
Giuliani listed his transportation expenses as $1,600, groceries, household items, laundry and personal care products expenses as $1,975 per month. He also claimed he pays $10,934 in homeowner’s association and condominium fees for his condo and $5,166 in fees for his home in Palm Beach.
