Federal judge holds Rudy Giuliani in contempt of court for repeating false claims about election workers.
The judge asked Giuliani, "$148 million wasn't a sufficient incentive to stop the defamation?".
Howell issued a $200 fine for each day Giuliani does not comply with the deadline to submit the declaration.
If Giuliani engages in further violations, Howell said the court would have to consider imprisonment or confinement.
Last week, a federal judge in New York also held Giuliani in contempt of court for failing to turn over personal property and information to the two election workers.
