Hunter Biden Seeks New Trial After Gun Conviction, Faces Law License Suspension

President's son challenges Delaware court's jurisdiction, citing procedural errors; D.C. law license suspended pending further review.

  • Hunter Biden was convicted on three felony counts related to a 2018 firearm purchase while using drugs.
  • His legal team argues the trial court lacked jurisdiction due to pending appeals court mandates.
  • Biden's license to practice law in Washington, D.C., has been suspended following the conviction.
  • He faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison but is unlikely to receive the full term as a first-time offender.
  • A separate trial for tax evasion charges is scheduled for September in California.
