Below is an excerpt from The Hill:
A federal judge in California ruled against Hunter Biden’s attempt to toss out his tax charges on Monday, letting the criminal case against the president’s son move forward.
The younger Biden faces three felony charges and six misdemeanor charges in connection to tax evasion, filing a false return and failing to pay taxes between 2016 and 2019. His attorneys argued last month that the case was politically motivated and tainted by two IRS agents who later became whistleblowers.
He filed eight separate motions to dismiss the charges, citing different legal rationale for each, all of which were denied.
Slamming Hunter’s request to get his case dismissed, Judge Mark Scarsi wrote, “The motion is remarkable in that it fails to include a single declaration, exhibit, or request for judicial notice. Instead, Defendant cites portions of various Internet news sources, social media posts, and legal blogs. These citations, however, are not evidence.”
The judge also denied Hunter’s allegations of “selective and vindictive prosecution.”
He wrote, “Defendant fails to present a reasonable inference, let alone clear evidence, of discriminatory effect and discriminatory purpose. Accordingly, the selective prosecution claim fails.”
