Hunter Biden’s team says they’re not ready for gun trial date in Delaware court.
Delaware – In a high-profile legal saga, the first son, Hunter Biden, has found himself at the center of attention once again as his legal team sought to delay his impending trial date, which was scheduled for June 3 by a federal judge two months earlier.
Although Hunter Biden was not present at the federal courthouse in Wilmington, Delaware, attorney Abbe Lowell and Special Counsel David Weiss were in attendance. Weiss was seen diligently taking notes during the proceedings.
Special counsel attorney Derek Hines labeled the Biden case as a “simple case” and expressed readiness to proceed with the trial on June 3 as ordered by U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika.
However, the developments took a turn when Hunter Biden’s request for a trial delay was denied by Noreika on Tuesday afternoon. Consequently, his case is set to go to trial next month, as reported by the Associated Press.
Hines anticipated that the trial would be brief, potentially lasting less than a week.
Although Hines was prepared to move forward, Lowell informed Noreika that they were not ready for the scheduled trial start date, citing his simultaneous work on Biden’s cases in both Delaware and California. Lowell proposed a trial date in September in Wilmington and indicated plans to file an appeal with the Third Circuit seeking an injunction to halt the trial until merit-based motions are addressed.
A significant development in Hunter Biden’s legal troubles was the 56-page indictment issued against him in Los Angeles in December. The indictment included felony charges, revealing his extravagant spending habits and lifestyle while highlighting alleged tax violations.
During the proceedings in Delaware, the admissibility of evidence was a key point of discussion. Both the defense and prosecution were said to be preparing to file “in limine” motions to exclude certain information from the jury, following a standard timeline in litigation.
One notable piece of evidence referenced a 2018 police report wherein Hallie, the widow of Joe Biden’s late son Beau and Hunter’s ex-partner, was reported to have disposed of a gun in a trash receptacle near A.I. duPont High School in Greenville, Delaware.
Additionally, a federal appeals court recently ruled against dismissing the gun charges after Hunter Biden requested the Third Circuit to do so.
As the legal proceedings unfold, the spotlight remains on Hunter Biden and the intricate web of legal challenges he faces on multiple fronts.
