Hunter Biden will have an active January in court as the Department of Justice's two criminal cases against him begin to take shape.
President Joe Biden's son is scheduled to appear Jan. 11 at a federal courthouse in Los Angeles for an arraignment on nine tax charges, including three felonies. He is expected to enter a plea and agree to the terms of his pretrial release during the appearance.
The arraignment relates to an indictment brought against Hunter Biden in December by special counsel David Weiss. In the indictment, Weiss alleged the first son failed to pay his taxes on more than $7 million of income during a four-year period beginning in 2017.
Weiss also brought charges against Hunter Biden in September over an unrelated incident from 2018. Weiss alleged in that indictment, which he brought in Delaware, that the first son lied on a federal gun form about his drug use so that he could purchase a gun. The special counsel also said Hunter Biden went on to retain possession of the gun illegally once he purchased it.
