Hunter, come on down!
-
An Arkansas judge on Monday ordered President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, to answer additional written questions about his investments, his art sales and other financial transactions as part of a paternity-related case.
Hunter Biden also will sit for a deposition in mid-June, where he’ll have to answer questions under oath, the judge said.
Independence County Circuit Judge Holly Meyer also chided Hunter Biden’s lawyers for overly redacting their filings and hiding information that should be public.
“The ability to redact is being somewhat abused,” Meyer said, ordering lawyers to re-file public versions of some of their previous filings, including some that had been “sealed” and fully blocked from public view.
The filings likely included information about which financial records Hunter Biden might need to turn over to Lunden Roberts, an Arkansas woman who is the mother of one of his children.
Monday’s hearing in the years-old case comes after Roberts, the mother of one of his children, asked an Arkansas judge to hold him in contempt – and send him to jail. She claims he is ignoring court orders requiring him to turn over documents about his finances.
The case was reopened in September when Hunter Biden asked the judge to reduce his child support payments. He told the court that there had been “a substantial material change in (his) financial circumstances” since the 2020 settlement, alluding to a sizable drop in his income.
This gave Roberts an opportunity to reopen the “discovery” process and demand records about Hunter Biden’s finances. She requested information about his art sales, an inventory of his properties and cars, details about his travel habits, and records about his tax difficulties.
Hunter Biden is paying $20,000 a month and has paid $750,000 so far to Roberts, his lawyer said on Monday, publicly revealing the figure for the first time.

Arkansas $411,633 = 1% $183,945 = 5%
20K per month = 240,000

So, this case is about something different other than the child? DNA proved it is his. He is paying child support. Correct?
-
My understanding is he’s trying to lower the child support as his financial situation has changed.

Just read that his attorneys charge $885 per billable hour.
He might just be better off paying the current level of child support at that rate.

How does that compare to the billing rates charged by professional gas passers?

Remember when Hunter said he couldn't afford the child support payments, that he was broke?
Yea, that's when he flew to Arkansas in a private jet.
His fortunes seem to have changed. He's renting a house for almost $16K a month. THat's more than I used to make in a week..

In fairness, any given white male has that same privilege. It's not fair to focus on Hunter, when the problem is more about a system of white male privilege.
To put it another way, it is disingenuous to say Hunter benefits from the fact that he is Joe Biden's son. He benefits from the fact that he is a white male. We need to focus on that, as a society. The GOP is trying to gaslight us into thinking it's about his father, when nothing could be further from the truth.

Never mind your poverty-stricken subsistence - that's more than Donald Trump pays in income tax!
Eat the rich.
