一份法院文件顯示，魯?shù)稀ぶ炖材嵴埱篑g回Dominion Voting Systems Inc.公司對其的密集指控，即他的選舉舞弊說法對該公司造成了重大經(jīng)濟損失，并要求該公司撤銷對其索賠13億美元的誹謗訴訟。
朱利安尼被指在播客上多次散布虛假指控，故意誤導選民。他在請求駁回起訴的動議中辯稱，Dominion Voting Systems公司未列出其因為自己的言論而產(chǎn)生的具體損失卻索賠過高的行為不當。朱利安尼此前聲稱，該公司的投票系統(tǒng)操縱了選票結(jié)果，讓民主黨總統(tǒng)候選人喬·拜登在2020年美國總統(tǒng)大選中竊取了前總統(tǒng)唐納德·特朗普的勝利。
Dominion Voting Systems公司表示，紐約市前市長“病毒式造謠”的行為給該公司帶來的負面影響顯而易見：它“破壞”了公司這項價值高達5億美元業(yè)務的轉(zhuǎn)售價值，迫使其支出了50多萬美元員工安保費用。公司預計，未來五年將損失多達2億美元的利潤。并且由于一些州因為該言論而不愿意使用Dominion Voting Systems的投票機，其還嚴重阻礙了公司在這些州的業(yè)務擴張進程。
“這些只是原告訴狀里的具體指控的幾個例子。”總部位于丹佛的Dominion Voting Systems公司在文件中指出?！白云鹪V以來，原告因為朱利安尼的行為而蒙受的損失變得越來越詳細具體，并且確實有所增加。”

Rudy Giuliani’s request to toss out a $1.3 billion defamation suit filed against him by Dominion Voting Systems Inc. ignores extensive allegations that his election fraud statements caused serious financial damage to the voting machine company, according to a court filing.
Giuliani, accused of exploiting unsupported election claims to hawk gold coins, cigars and nutrition supplements on a podcast, argued in a motion to dismiss the suit that the company improperly sought “exorbitant” damages without identifying any harm it suffered from his public comments. Giuliani made claims that software used by Dominion machines changed votes while representing former president Donald Trump in his failed effort to reverse the 2020 election result.
Dominion said the impact of the former New York mayor’s “viral disinformation campaign” was clear: it “destroyed” the resale value of a business that had been worth as much as $500 million and forced Dominion to spend more than $500,000 on security for employees. The claims are projected to result in lost profits of $200 million over the next five years and to upend Dominion’s business in states that are now balking at using its machines, the company said.
“These are just a few exemplars of the detailed allegations plaintiffs set forth in their complaint,” Denver-based Dominion said in the filing. “The losses plaintiffs have suffered as a result of Giuliani’s conduct become more specific over time and indeed have grown since the complaint was filed.”
Giuliani’s lawyer on the case, Joseph Sibley, didn’t immediately respond to a message seeking comment on the filing.
