Judge says Giuliani can keep money from book deal
Former New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani will not have to share with his estranged wife 2.7 million dollars he will get for writing two books, a judge ruled.
Former New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani will not have to share with his estranged wife 2.7 million dollars he will get for writing two books, a judge ruled.
Manhattan Supreme Court judge Judith Gische, who has been presiding over the high-profile divorce between Giuliani and television personality Donna Hanover, ruled that the book deal is not a marital asset because it was made after Giuliani filed for divorce.
Giuliani is to produce a memoir about public positions he has held, and another book on management strategies.
Giuliani filed for divorce from Hanover in December 2000 after a public break-up during his aborted U.S. Senate campaign earlier that year. Last July, Gische ordered him to pay Hanover child support for their two children of 1,800 dollars a month. Bureau Report
