An attorney representing President Biden's son Hunter in a felony gun case has filed to withdraw from the case.
Richard Jones filed the request Friday, less than a week after Hunter pleaded not guilty toย federal gun chargesย in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware after being charged out of Special Counsel David Weiss' years-long investigation.ย
โMr. Biden has been advised of, and consents to, our withdrawal. He also agrees this withdrawal will cause no material adverse effect or prejudice to him and remains completely satisfied with Messrs. [Abbe] Lowell's and [Bartholomew] Dalton's continued representation of him,โ reads the document filed by Jones in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware.
โAccordingly, our withdrawal as counsel will have no material adverse effect on Mr. Biden's interests,โ it adds.
Hunter was charged with making a false statement in the purchase of a firearm; making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federal firearms licensed dealer; and one count of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance.
Magistrate Judge Christopher Burke presided over the hearing and laid out the conditions for Hunter Biden's release, which require theย president's sonย to seek employment and communicate all international travel plans. Biden also is prohibited from possessing a firearm and using alcohol and drugs, and he is required to get drug tested randomly and participate in a substance abuse counseling program.
The total maximum prison time for the charges could be up to 25 years. Each count carries a maximum fine of $250,000, and three years of supervised release.

Am I mistaken or is this not the first lawyer to bail on the Bidens, our renowned Crime Family?
