Rudy Giuliani has been ordered to prepare for trial after he failed to silence “sordid” sex claims hurled against him — and a lawyer made famous by a movie took up his accuser’s case.

The disgraced former New York City mayor and Donald Trump lawyer must sit for a deposition before the end of January next year — and be ready to go before a jury by the end of March, according to a judge’s order filed in New York Supreme Court this week.

It follows a 3-year fight by Noelle Dunphy, who claims she was subjected to booze-and-Viagra-fueled sexual harassment, including being forced to have sex, while working for Giuliani between 2019 and 2021. She claims to have recordings of many of Giuliani’s demands.

The order from Manhattan Judge Nicholas Moyne quashes efforts by Giuliani’s legal team to have the case thrown out — and brushes aside arguments that he’s too sick and poor to stand trial.

    You can’t delight in a fall from grace as spectacular, as humiliating, as what’s happened to Rudy Giuliani.

    uh, what fall from grace? you don’t live several decades, wake up one day, and just start being a sexual predator. he might have fell from fame, but he was always a predator, just nobody knew it. there was no grace in his soul.
