Lawyers for Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman said they may rest their case today.

The attorneys expect Freeman to take the stand this afternoon following Dr. Ashlee Humphreys, an expert who will testify about the reach of Rudy Giuliani's statements and the reputational impact of those statements on Freeman and Moss.

Before the jury was seated, Giuliani was asked by Judge Beryl Howell to explain remarks he made after court and online Tuesday night, after she admonished him earlier Tuesday about comments he made on Monday.

"I did," Giuliani said about making Tuesday's remarks, "but I don't think they violated the order. If I did, it was accidental."

"I will not do it in the future," he said.

In a video streamed Tuesday night on X, formerly Twitter, Giuliani said, "They're seeking $40 million. Oh yeah. They're seeking $40 million for the damage that I allegedly did to them. One of them did testify that she has no money, they do have an endless number of lawyers in the courtroom, however, for people that don't have any money."

Day 3 of the trial is scheduled to begin with a witness deposition video, finishing up the series of deposition videos that was played in court yesterday.

Plaintiffs' attorney are then expected to call an expert witness to the stand to testify about the impact of Giuliani's statements.

The testimony is expected to address the estimated cost to repair the damage done to Shaye Moss and Ruby Freeman's reputations.

After court was adjourned for the day, Rudy Giuliani told reporters outside court that he would not comment on the case after the judge slammed the remarks he made after court Monday.

"I'm not going to discuss the case anymore because it seemed to get the judge annoyed," he told reporters.

Court will resume Wednesday morning.

Following Shaye Moss' testimony and the playing of several video depositions, Day 2 of the trial adjourned for the day.

When court resumes on Wednesday, Michael Gottlieb, an attorney for Freeman and Moss, said he plans to show one final deposition video of poll observer Pamela Michelle Branton.

Plaintiffs' attorneys also plan to call an expert witness to testify about the impacts of Giuliani's false accusations, according to court papers filed in the case.

"Irresponsible." "Wrongful Conduct."

Those are some of the descriptions of Rudy Giuliani's behavior toward Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss that came from Giuliani's own lawyer during his closing argument.

Attorney Joseph Sibley conceded to jurors that his client had wronged Freeman and Moss. He also applauded what he called the "genuine" and powerful testimony from the two women.

But he implored jurors to levy a more measured penalty against Giuliani than the "catastrophic" sum requested by the two plaintiffs.

When jurors consider the cost of Giuliani's defamatory statements, Sibley said, they might say of Giuliani: "You should've been better. But you're not as bad as they made you out to be."

Sibley also implored jurors to discount the testimony of the plaintiff's expert witnesses, framing their delivery as "rehearsed."

"I almost wanted to look at the ceiling to see if the lawyers were puppeteering the witness," Sibley joked.

Sibley called the testimony of Dr. Ashlee Humphreys, who estimated that the cost to repair the reputations of Moss and Freeman is between $17.8 million and $47.4 million, "patently absurd," especially given that "people who believe this stuff are still going to believe it no matter what."
