Ex-Overstock CEO says Hunter Biden is basically just calling him ‘a right-wing nutjob’ in order to keep his Iran-themed defamation lawsuit afloat

Complaints continue to fly between former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne and Hunter Biden in a long-running lawsuit where the presidential son claims the businessman defamed him.

Earlier this week, Byrne’s attorney filed a declaration complaining that Biden’s legal team gave the defense some “543 pages of documents” which were not previously disclosed, not on a list of proposed trial exhibits, and, in deadline terms, “past the discovery cut off.”

Filed in support of a separate motion in limine, Byrne argued the court should “preclude” Biden “from referring, mentioning, or using in any manner any of the documents contained” in that allegedly late discovery dump “during the trial of this case.” Specifically, as the overarching motion elaborates, the defense wants to keep out any evidence or witness testimony that was not disclosed in discovery.

Now, Biden’s attorneys say Byrne’s attorney simply got it wrong — and is protesting far too much about the documents themselves.
