President Trump’s former attorney Rudy Giuliani settled his $1.3 billion lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems over disseminating a false theory about the 2020 presidential election, according to court documents. 

Dominion Voting Systems and Giuliani, the former New York City mayor, agreed to the “dismissal of all claims and causes of action asserted in this matter by Dominion against Giuliani with prejudice.” 

“Each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs,” Dominion’s lawyers said in the Friday court filing. The details of the settlement are unclear, including the amount of money. 

Dominion filed the lawsuit against Giuliani in early 2021, alleging he made several defamatory statements about the voting machine company, including that the company engaged in election fixing and voter fraud. 

Giuliani continued to falsely accuse the voting machine company of rigging the 2020 White House race through manipulating votes, Dominion alleged in the lawsuit.

“Notably, although Dominion machines were used in Pennsylvania in the 2020 election, the Trump Campaign’s complaint did not include any allegations about Dominion,” the company’s lawyers said in the lawsuit in January 2021. 

Earlier this month, a New York state judge ruled that Giuliani, a longtime ally of Trump, has to pay his former defense attorney’s firm $1.36 million plus interest in unpaid legal bills. 

Giuliani reached a settlement with two Georgia election workers in a $148 million defamation case in January. The amount of money as part of the settlement was not disclosed. 

Dominion also reached a $787 million settlement with Fox News in April 2023 over the network’s coverage of Trump’s false claims of voter fraud in the 2020 White House race.
