Hunter Biden tried to keep laptop information out of child support case.

Hunter Biden’s Legal Battle Over Laptop

Hunter Biden is currently fighting to reduce his child support payments to Lunden Alexis Roberts, the mother of his four-year-old daughter. However, his high-priced legal team is arguing that the financial records on his laptop are outdated and therefore not relevant to the case.

The Laptop Controversy

Hunter Biden has refused to directly admit ownership of the laptop, even though his lawyers have acknowledged that it contains his personal data. The laptop was reportedly abandoned at a computer repair shop in 2019 and has been the source of a series of damaging reports about the Biden family’s foreign business dealings during Joe Biden’s vice presidency.

Legal Hedging

In a court motion unsealed this week, Biden’s lawyers fought to exclude testimony about the laptop from his child support dispute, claiming that evidence of his income from three years ago and beyond would not prove his income today. However, this latest legal hedging from Biden could open him up to questions about the laptop’s contents during his under oath deposition.

Expert Witness

Clinton Lancaster, Roberts’s lawyer, has retained Garrett Ziegler as an expert witness. Ziegler is a Republican political operative who compiled a 600-page report on the laptop’s contents. Biden’s lawyers asked the court to disqualify Ziegler, but the motion was withdrawn this week without explanation.

Biden’s Evasion

The filing is the latest example of Biden’s evasion on the laptop controversy. Democrats and media outlets initially claimed the laptop was a “Russian disinformation” operation after the New York Post first reported on it in 2020. Hunter Biden has raised the possibility that he “was hacked” or “that it was Russian intelligence.”
