Former President Donald Trump and his longtime lawyer Rudy Giuliani have been served in a civil rights lawsuit that claims Trump conspired with Giuliani and far-right extremist groups in an attempt to stop Congress from certifying the results of the 2020 election.

Lawyers for Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MI), who serves as chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, and the NAACP delivered the lawsuit to the former president at Mar-a-Lago, the Daily Beast reported Wednesday. Giuliani’s lawyer, Joseph D. Sibley, accepted the papers on behalf of the former mayor of New York.
