Hunter Biden's legal team appeared to seek a delay for his impending June 3 trial date in Delaware, which was set by a federal judge two months ago.
The first son was not in attendance Tuesday at the federal courthouse in Delaware's largest city, Wilmington, but attorney Abbe Lowell as well as Special Counsel David Weiss were. Weiss sat in court taking notes during the proceedings.
Special counsel attorney Derek Hines told the court the Biden matter is a "simple case," and that he was prepared to go forward with U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika's June 3 trial date.
But Tuesday afternoon, Noreika rejected Hunter Biden’s request to delay the trial. His case will go to trial next month, according to the Associated Press.
Hines predicted the trial would take less than a week.
