Hunter Biden has been caught misleading a judge while under oath during his disastrous plea deal hearing last week.
Delaware district judge Maryellen Noreika had asked Hunter where he was eligible to practice law.
“You’re member of the bar?” she asked him.
Hunter replied, “Yes, your Honor. District of Columbia and Connecticut, your Honor.”
But according to Connecticut bar records, Hunter had an “administrative suspension for failure to pay the Client Security Fund fee” in 2021, which was repeated in November that same year and in June of 2022.
Connecticut lawyer Kevin Rennie told The Daily Mail that Hunter’s statement was “extraordinary” and that he “misled the court.”
“I’m careful about using the word ‘lie’ because I don’t know what was in his head. But he certainly should have known better,” he said.
“A lawyer who is asked under oath where he is admitted to practice and does not include in his response that he is suspended from practice in one of them has misled the court.”
“He did not give her an answer that, I think most judges would see under these circumstances, was in good faith. It omitted crucial facts.”
“Clearly he thought he was admitted to the practice in Connecticut. He ought to know, after 26 years, that certain obligations come with that. And they are by no means onerous,” he added.
Rennie also said he was surprised Hunter’s lawyers didn’t catch that glaring oversight.
“It’s only $75. The Judicial Branch, they’re very good about reminding people that they need to pay by June 15. So I was surprised,” Rennie said.
“I was also surprised that given what we all assume he’s paying in legal fees, that someone at the law firm representing him would have just checked the box to make sure everything was as it should be – such as ‘You paid the $75, didn’t you?’”
Hunter’s plea deal fell apart during the hearing after Judge Noreika called into question the blanket immunity from future prosecutions his attorneys believed was included in the plea bargain.
Perjury is classified in Delaware as a Class D felony, the potential punishments of which usually include prison time, fines, or probation.
But given the DOJ’s preferential treatment of Hunter so far, this latest violation by Joe Biden’s son will likely never be addressed.
