Hunter Biden’s lawyers insisted it ‘would be wrong’ to keep ‘doctored form’ at center of gun trial from jury, but the judge was unmoved

After the Special Counsel’s Office asked a federal judge to reject a post-felony conviction push by Hunter Biden for a new gun trial, calling that request an “invented fiction” brought about by a “failure to read,” the defense on Tuesday withdrew the motion.

Biden’s lawyers had claimed that U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika wrongly proceeded to trial in June without jurisdiction to do so since, in their view, the defense’s appeals of her pretrial denials of Biden’s motions to dismiss on grounds of immunity, a violation of the separation of powers, and the “improper appointment” of special counsel David Weiss technically remained pending.
