Giuliani's attorneys argue recent search warrants are 'fruit of this poisoned tree' after 'illegal' iCloud search review in 2019

Attorneys for Rudy Giuliani argued in a letter to the court unsealed Monday that federal authorities' review of material seized from a covert search of his iCloud account in 2019 was illegal and suggested the search warrants executed late last month on his Manhattan home and office were the "fruit of this poisoned tree."
Lawyers for Giuliani, who served as former President Donald Trump's personal attorney, filed the letter in response to prosecutors' request for a "special master" -- or independent review -- of the material seized from his properties to determine whether it contains documents subject to attorney-client privilege. Giuliani has been the focus of an investigation concerning his activities in Ukraine, including whether he conducted illegal lobbying for Ukrainian officials while he pursued an investigation linked to Trump's primary political rival, President Joe Biden, CNN has reported. Giuliani hasn't been charged and has denied wrongdoing.
