Attorneys for Hunter Biden will return to court Wednesday, seeking the dismissal of the tax-related charges brought against the him by special counsel David Weiss.
Thursday, March 28, 2024 12:10AMtax case in California heard several defense motions to dismiss the charges Wednesday, and said afterward that he would issue rulings by April 17.
Wise repeatedly said Lowell could not make an argument on the merits of the case "other than insulting us," and invoked what he referred to as "the old adage: if you can't argue the facts, argue the law ... and if you can't argue the law, attack the prosecutors." Lowell argued that Hunter Biden was a resident of Washington, D.C., and Delaware in the calendar year 2018, which he said would make it improper to charge several counts in California.
"There doesn't seem to be any evidence" that efforts by Republicans to pressure special counsel Weiss "influenced the prosecutors' decision other than the timeline," Judge Scarsi said -- likening the motion to some "smoke" but without sufficient "fire."
