From The Hill: A federal judge agreed to push back Hunter Biden’s first criminal sentencing three weeks, now scheduling it for Dec. 4.
The president’s son’s sentencing was already slated for after the election, but his attorney asked to delay the Nov. 13 date because of overlap with Biden’s other ongoing legal battles.
Special Counsel David Weiss opposed the delay, court documents show, but U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika in a brief order quickly agreed to the request.
Biden faces sentencing on three felony gun charges that a Delaware jury convicted him on in June. He was found guilty of lying about his drug use on a federal form when purchasing a revolver and then illegally possessing the gun while being addicted to drugs.
In another legal case, Hunter Biden managed to avoid a criminal trial in California this month on tax-related charges by pleading guilty just as jury selection was about to get underway. Sentencing for that case is scheduled for December 16.
