Giuliani refuses to show up for Jan 6 testimony

Bloomberg

Rudy Giuliani balked at showing up for his scheduled interview before the House Committee investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol, a spokesman for the panel said.
The spokesman, Tim Mulvey, said the committee “will consider all enforcement options” if the former personal lawyer to former President Donald Trump continues to refuse.
“Mr Giuliani had agreed to participate in a transcribed interview with the Select Committee,” Mulvey said in a statement.
“He informed committee investigators that he wouldn’t show up unless he was permitted to record the interview, which was never an agreed-upon condition.”
Giuliani’s lawyer, Robert Costello, did not return messages for comment.
Mulvey described Giuliani, a former mayor of New York, as “an important witness to the conspiracy to overthrow the government and he remains under subpoena.”
The committee initially subpoenaed Giuliani in January, but the two sides have been negotiating ground rules for his appearance, Costello has said.
Giuliani was rebuffed in his legal efforts to challenge the outcome of the 2020 vote, though some states conducted so-called audits or recounts that failed to turn up any fraud.
