    New York's Appellate Division suspended Giuliani on an interim basis after finding uncontroverted evidence that he made demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers, and the public while representing Trump. The court applied the professional-discipline standard of immediate threat to the public interest, making a professional-liability finding rather than imposing criminal liability.
