Hunter Biden Seeks Delay in Tax Trial Amid Overlapping Legal Battles

Attorneys request postponement of California tax trial to September, citing conflicts with Delaware gun case and preparation challenges.

Hunter Biden's legal team has asked for the California tax trial to be delayed from June 20 to September 5.
The request follows a denied bid to postpone his federal gun trial in Delaware, which starts on June 3.
Prosecutors argue that Biden's counsel had previously agreed to the trial dates and should not be granted a continuance.
Biden faces multiple charges, including tax evasion and gun-related offenses, and has pleaded not guilty to all.
The judge overseeing the tax case will consider further schedule modification requests on May 29.
