LISTEN HERE:
An Arkansas judge has issued an order for Hunter Biden to appear in person at the Independence County Courthouse in Batesville to explain why he shouldn’t be held in contempt for allegedly concealing his finances in the child support battle against the mother of his child.
The mother, Lunden Alexis Roberts, has argued that Biden is not complying with a May court order to provide information regarding his finances. Possible punishments for civil and criminal contempt, including up to six months of jail time and sanctions, are being considered.
Biden’s ability to pay will be a critical issue in the contempt proceeding, and he will be given the opportunity to respond to questions about his financial status at the hearing.
The child, Navy Joan Roberts, was born in Arkansas in August 2018, and Biden previously settled with Roberts for $2.5 million in 2020, but the case was later reopened. Biden is currently in a court battle in Arkansas to lower his payments.
Roberts’ lawyers have filed to change the surname of her daughter to ‘Biden’ and argued that the name is synonymous with being successful, financially acute, and politically powerful, but Biden’s lawyers are fighting to block the name change.
One of the sanctions being considered is striking Biden’s legal filings fighting the name change, as ruled by Judge Holly Lodge Meyer.
In June, Biden and Roberts will sit for a deposition, where Biden must answer questions about his income, investments, art sales, and other relevant financial transactions. It was revealed that he is under federal investigation for his taxes shortly after the 2020 election.
While Republicans have accused him of potential crimes related to foreign lobbying or money laundering, U.S. Attorney David Weiss, the Delaware prosecutor overseeing the case and a Trump-appointed holdover, may have narrowed his focus to Biden potentially committing tax fraud and lying on a federal gun form when purchasing a revolver.
IRS whistleblowers have come forward to allege the investigation has been mishandled and politicized.
Biden appeared at the judge’s orders in the Arkansas town courtroom in May, but didn’t speak. However, a trial to figure out whether his payments can be adjusted is scheduled for July.
Biden’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, revealed that he’s currently paying $20,000 per month in child support and has already paid $750,000 thus far.
Hunter Biden cannot escape the Arkansas court’s order for him to appear in person at the Independence County Courthouse in Batesville. The May order, issued by Judge Holly Lodge Meyer, demanded that Biden provide relevant information regarding his finances in the child support battle against Lunden Alexis Roberts.
Roberts believes that Biden is not complying with the court order, and the judge has decided to take action on the matter. Biden will be given an opportunity to respond to questions about his finances at the hearing, but all indications suggest that he may face civil and criminal contempt, including up to six months of jail time.
Biden previously settled with Roberts but had the case reopened after Roberts’ lawyers filed to change her daughter’s surname to the Biden name. Hunter has consistently and aggressively fought against the name change. Judge Meyer is considering punishment against Biden, including sanctions and striking Hunter Biden’s legal filings fighting the name change.
Biden will answer questions about his investments, income, and art sales in June at a deposition. Biden previously revealed he is under federal investigation for his taxes, which has led to claims of potential crimes of foreign lobbying and money laundering. However, the Delaware prosecutor, a Trump-appointed holdover leading the case, is reportedly narrowing his focus to tax fraud and lying on a federal gun form. Interestingly, IRS whistleblowers came forward to allege that the Biden investigation had been politicized.
Although Biden appeared in court at the judge’s orders in May, he didn’t speak. It’s a different story at the upcoming trial, which is scheduled for July, where it is expected that Biden will engage in a legal battle with Roberts. Biden’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, disclosed that Biden is currently paying $20,000 per month in child support and has already paid $750,000.
Hunter Biden has to face the consequences of his actions after allegedly concealing his finances in a child support battle. The Arkansas judge overseeing his child support case has ordered him to appear in court in July to explain his actions.
Biden could face severe punishments like incarceration for civil and criminal contempt for up to six months if the judge finds him guilty. Judge Holly Lodge Meyer has taken the matter seriously and warned the defendant of his ‘ability to pay’ and his financial status. Biden also has to sit for a deposition where he must answer detailed questions about his income.
Biden is in a tough situation in Arkansas, where he is engaged in a court battle to lower his payments. His lawyers are fighting Roberts’ attempt to change her daughter’s surname to Biden.
Judge Meyer is considering a number of sanctions, including striking the legal filings fighting the name change. However, the child was conceived and born in Arkansas in 2018. Although the case has gone on for years, it appears to be coming to a head with Biden’s upcoming court date.
Hunter Biden finds himself in trouble and has been asked to appear in court in person for concealing his finances. According to the child support case against him and the mother of his child, the defendant has refused to provide information on his finances.
As a consequence, he is now being considered for criminal and civil contempt, including a possible incarceration sentence of six months. During the hearing, Biden will have to explain his financial status, his income sources, and details of his financial transactions.
Biden settled with Roberts for $2.5 million in 2020. However, the case was later reopened, as the lawyers for Roberts sought to change the surname of her 4-year-old daughter to ‘Biden.’ Biden’s lawyers have been pushing back against the name change, leading to a possible sanction by the Judge.
Additionally, Biden is undergoing a federal investigation for his taxes, with allegations of money laundering and lobbying being investigated. The case has been riddled with whistleblowers and allegations of politicization, making it both a highly publicized and controversial matter.
Although Biden made an appearance in the court as per the judge’s orders in May, he didn’t speak and didn’t face any major consequences. However, that will change when he faces off against Roberts in a legal battle in July.
The upcoming trial is critical for Biden as it could result in a reduced payment schedule or a substantial increase in his payments.
The Arkansas judge has put Hunter Biden on notice after his alleged failure to comply with a court order to provide information regarding his finances in a child support case against Lunden Alexis Roberts. Biden is now required to appear in court and explain his actions.
The mother of his child is seeking action against Biden as he has refused to provide information about his finances. The judge has warned Biden that his ability to pay and financial status will be critical and that he is subject to incarceration if found guilty of civil and criminal contempt.
Biden is engaged in a battle with Roberts to lower his payments in court. Roberts filed to change the name of her child to ‘Biden,’ but Hunter’s lawyers have been fighting against it. Judge Holly Lodge Meyer is considering various sanctions against Biden, including striking his legal filings.
Biden revealed in court that he is currently paying $20,000 per month in child support and has already paid $750,000. He will face detailed questioning about his income, finances, and transactions in June at a deposition and will directly face Roberts in a trial scheduled for July.
Biden is in hot water with the Arkansas judge as he faces possible contempt and sanctions. Offending the court’s order to provide information regarding his finances will lead to consequences, and it appears that Biden will face the music in court.
The mother of his child, Lunden Alexis Roberts, is seeking harsh punishment against Biden, and the judge has warned the defendant about his financial status. The case, which started in 2018 when the child was born, has been a contentious matter, and the matter is far from resolved.
