Hunter Biden Seeks Sentencing Delay in Gun Case

Hunter Biden’s attorneys filed a motion on Tuesday requesting a delay to sentencing in his illegal gun possession case by a few weeks, citing overlap with his other cases in California.

Biden was found guilty in June of lying to a federally licensed gun dealer, falsely claiming on his application that he was not a drug user at the time of purchase, and then unlawfully possessing the gun for 11 days.
Biden’s lawyers asked a Delaware judge to postpone the scheduled Nov. 13 sentencing to either late November or early December.

The attorneys said that many of the pre-sentencing tasks for the case overlap with Biden’s tax sentencing in California on Dec. 16 and a pre-trial conference for one of his civil cases is set for Nov. 12, making it difficult for his lead trial counsel to attend the Nov. 13 sentencing hearing.
