Judge Denies Hunter Biden’s Motion to Dismiss Gun Case, Trial Set to Proceed

A federal judge denied Hunter Biden’s motion to dismiss his gun case, ruling that it will proceed to trial.

Biden is accused of falsely claiming he wasn’t an unlawful drug user on a federal form when buying a gun in 2018, despite documented struggles with substance abuse at the time.

Judge Maryellen Noreika dismissed claims that the prosecution was politically motivated or a breach of separation of powers.

She highlighted that the charges came from his father’s Department of Justice, making claims of selective prosecution “nonsensical.” Hunter Biden has pleaded not guilty and also faces a separate tax evasion case in California.
