New York — Two attorneys representing Rudy Giuliani in a lawsuit related to a $148 million defamation judgment against him have asked a judge to remove them from the case over disagreements with the former New York City mayor.

His lawyers hinted they want to quit over a "fundamental disagreement" -- or when a client "insists on presenting a claim or defense that is not warranted under existing law."
