A legal challenge brought by Hunter Biden against a former Trump official has been voluntarily withdrawn amid reported financial struggles. The case, which stemmed from the circulation of materials allegedly sourced from Biden’s infamous laptop, has now been dropped after Biden’s attorneys cited a lack of funds and pressing personal circumstances.
Filed in 2023, the lawsuit had targeted Garrett Ziegler, a former aide to the Trump White House trade adviser Peter Navarro, along with his nonprofit group, Marco Polo. The complaint accused Ziegler of publishing a searchable database of roughly 128,000 emails purportedly linked to Biden.
Court records indicated that U.S. District Judge Hernan D. Vera was asked by Biden’s legal team to dismiss the case, referencing a sharp decline in income and ongoing debt, reportedly in the millions. Additional claims were made regarding wildfire damage in the Pacific Palisades area, which had allegedly rendered Biden’s rental property uninhabitable for a prolonged period, further complicating his living situation and financial state.
It was further claimed that income opportunities from art sales and paid engagements had not materialized as expected. According to Biden, only one piece of artwork had been sold recently—for $36,000—compared to 27 pieces sold in prior years, averaging over $54,000 each.
Though an effort had been made to block the lawsuit’s dismissal earlier, that attempt had already been rejected. Meanwhile, Biden’s legal team cited ongoing challenges in securing stable housing and a sustainable livelihood as justification for focusing on personal obligations rather than litigation.
In addition to the Ziegler case, Biden also opted to abandon a separate lawsuit against IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, whom he had accused of improperly disclosing private tax information. That case was dismissed with prejudice—a legal term meaning the claims cannot be refiled in any court.
In earlier testimony before the House Oversight Committee, the whistleblowers stated that they had encountered what they called institutional obstacles that hindered their investigation into Hunter Biden’s financial affairs. In a statement issued following the dismissal, Shapley and Ziegler asserted that the action had been brought to intimidate, a tactic that had ultimately failed.
Questions have also resurfaced concerning Biden’s mounting financial liabilities, including reported unpaid rent exceeding $300,000. This follows his recent convictions on federal gun and tax charges, which were effectively neutralized after an unconditional pardon from President Joe Biden, his father.
The dismissal of both lawsuits has drawn attention not only for their legal implications but also for what some have characterized as an effort to evade accountability. Despite initial claims of harm and misconduct, the withdrawal of these cases has prompted critics to argue that Biden may have lacked both the evidence and the resolve to see them through.
