Jerris Rudd was a henchman of Jabba the Hutt.
Biography
Shortly before the Battle of Endor, Rudd and Bib Fortuna purchased and trained two Twi'lek dancers, Oola and Sienn'rha, for the enjoyment of Jabba. He hired Rudd to transport the dancers from Ryloth to Tatooine[2]. Before he could present Jabba with his gifts, Luke Skywalker spotted Rudd and the two Twi'leks. While Rudd wasn't looking, the Jedi offered the dancers their freedom. Before they could accept the offer, Rudd noticed Luke and fired several shots at him. Using his lightsaber, Luke quickly defeated Rudd, who was left for dead.
