Devon Archer's attorney said his client would not surrender, per the Justice Department's request, before he meets with lawmakers.
Devon Archer, Hunter Biden’s former business partner , arrives at the O'Neill House Office Building before testifying to the House Oversight Committee on Capitol Hill on July 31, 2023 in Washington, D.C.
Gaetz said that if Archer is not in the witness chair for his testimony on Monday, Attorney General Merrick Garland will be called to testify. Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, arrives at Fort Lesley J. McNair in Washington, D.C., US, on Sunday, June 25, 2023. The letter did not specifically demand Archer go to prison before he testified Monday, but to set a date to begin his jail sentence.
"To be clear, the Government does not request that the defendant surrender before his Congressional testimony," the letter sent on Sunday reads. "As the Court knows, to surrender and commence his sentence of imprisonment, the defendant first must be designated to a federal facility by the Bureau of Prisons—a process that can take several weeks or months after the Court sets a surrender date.
