In a recent filing on Tuesday, the Chief Judge of the District of Columbia Court of Appeals announced the suspension of Hunter Biden from practicing law in Washington, D.C.
Chief Judge Anna Blackburne-Rigsby has announced that President Biden’s son has been immediately suspended following his conviction on federal gun charges by a federal jury in Delaware. Federal law strictly forbids the purchase or possession of firearms by someone who has improperly used controlled substances. The younger Biden was found guilty of three felony counts for purchasing a gun in 2018 while struggling with a crack cocaine addiction.
