Dominion Voting Systems has brought suit against Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani for defamation, and are asking for $1.3 Billion in damages.
Dominion has claimed that Giuliani and other Trump officials alleged that Dominion voting machines were faulty and easily manipulated, in the wake of President Trump's election loss.
Dominion contends that Giuliani and other Trump campaign attorneys spread false claims about Dominion Voting Systems machines. The most notable of these was that Dominion machines would change Trump votes to Biden votes.
Giuliani is not the only Trump lawyer facing a defamation lawsuit, Dominion has also taken up suit against attorney Sidney Powell for her allegations that Dominion was a part of a "wide scale voter fraud plot to oust Trump," according to Axios.
Dominion claims that Giuliani knowingly spread misinformation. The company had previously sent Giuliani a legal notice asking him to stop speaking against their company and practices.
The 107-page lawsuit reads "Although he was unwilling to make false election fraud claims about Dominion and its voting machines in a court of law because he knew those allegations are false, he and his allies manufactured and disseminated the 'Big Lie,' which foreseeably went viral and deceived millions of people into believing that Dominion had stolen their votes and fixed the election."
"As a result of the defamatory falsehoods peddled by Giuliani—in concert with ... other like-minded allies and media outlets determined to promote a false preconceived narrative about the 2020 election—Dominion's founder and employees have been harassed and have received death threats, and Dominion has suffered unprecedented and irreparable harm."
Dominion founder and CEO John Poulos told the Axios Re:Cap podcast that his company is also considering filing lawsuits against President Trump, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, and other Trump allies who spread the false allegations of voter fraud.
