Hunter Biden ’s motion to dismiss the charges over so-called vindictive prosecution was denied Friday by US District Judge Maryellen Noreika in Delaware.

Federal prosecutors oppose Hunter Biden's 'meritless' request to toss gun charges

Government prosecutors on Tuesday opposed a recent effort by Hunter Biden's attorneys to dismiss the federal gun charges filed against him on the basis of selective and vindictive prosecution, arguments the special counsel's office called “meritless.”

Special counsel David Weiss cites ‘overwhelming’ evidence against Hunter Biden in gun case

Special counsel David Weiss roundly rejected Hunter Biden’s arguments that the gun-related criminal charges against him in Delaware should be dismissed, according to court documents filed Tuesday.
