Colorado Politics: Colorado’s second-highest court agreed on Thursday that a former executive of Denver-based Dominion Voting Systems may proceed with a defamation claim against Rudy Giuliani for his unproven accusations of election rigging in the 2020 presidential race.
The decision by a three-judge panel of the Court of Appeals mirrored a more comprehensive opinion issued in April, which permitted Eric Coomer’s defamation claims to proceed against a wider cast of defendants, including the presidential campaign of Donald Trump. Giuliani, a former New York City mayor and Trump surrogate, was excluded from the prior decision because he was in the middle of bankruptcy proceedings.
