The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has refused to throw out federal gun charges related to Hunter Biden's upcoming criminal trial in Delaware next month.
The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit refused to throw out Hunter Biden's indictment on federal gun charges in a court document released Thursday. The president's son is set to stand trial next month in Delaware. 'The defendant in this criminal case appealed three pretrial orders entered on April 12, 2024, denying his motions to dismiss the indictment,' the court document released Thursday states.
He was indicted after a plea deal that would have resolved the case without the spectacle of a trial imploded in July 2023, when a judge who was supposed to approve it instead raised more questions. READ THE COURT DOCUMENT — APP USERS CLICK HERE Biden's attorneys have since sought to have the case tossed out by arguing that prosecutors bowed to political pressure after the agreement was publicly pilloried by Republicans – including former President Trump – as a 'sweetheart deal.
three to six day jury trial is set to begin on June 3 and will be presided over by Judge Maryellen Noreika. A pre-trial conference is scheduled for May 24. Biden is also expected to stand trial on June 20 in Los Angeles for federal tax charges brought against him in the same investigation headed by Special Counsel David Weiss.
