The judge presiding over the Hunter Biden case threatened Biden's legal team with sanctions over allegations about lying in his criminal case.
Hunter Biden's legal team is accused of misrepresenting themselves to get information about IRS whistleblowers removed from the docket. Delaware Judge Maryellen Noreika gave Biden's legal time until 9 p.m. on Tuesday to explain their side.
A lawyer from Hunter's legal team is accused of misrepresenting who she was when asking to remove amicus materials. They allegedly called to ask the clerk to have the information sealed.
"The Court has discussed the matter with the relevant individuals in the Clerk's Office and has been informed that the caller, Ms. Jessica Bengels, represented that she worked with Mr. Kittila and requested the amicus materials be taken down because they contained sensitive grand jury, taxpayer and social security information," the order read.

"It appears that the caller misrepresented her identity and who she worked for in an attempt to improperly convince the clerk's office to remove the amicus materials from the docket," the judge added.
"The Court will temporarily place the document under seal until close of business on July 26, 2023 to afford Defendant the opportunity to try to make the requisite showing," the order read.

They pulled this reckless stunt the day before Hunter Biden's plea deal hearing.
Will the judge sign off on it now?
who cares, nobody voted for him. if he broke the law, they should throw the book at him. that way nobody will feel slighted later when a few trump kids end up at club fed for their past white collar criminal activities...
The only lying going on is far right wing fascists doing everything they can to destroy the legally elected president of the United States.
How sad that hate and fascism is all that the far right has to fall back on.

You mean like we saw from 2016 until today?
I'm sure you really just couldn't help it, could you?
How about showing that "hate and fascism" you claim.
BTW...I have asked for proof of several other things you claim, but you have not responded to them yet.
Why is that?
You're expecting the President's family to pay their taxes and not launder money..... because you're a RW fascist hatemonger.
I'm going to get all my vegan friends together and start a protest.
Make sure you get the purple haired ones. They are my favorite to make fun of,
OK, I'm officially triggered.
You're in deep trouble now. I might even change my profile photo on Facebook.
We will fight fascism and purple-hair persecution!!!
The form of the plea deal itself is a gift to biden. It removes sentencing discretion from the judge. It’s essentially unheard of for defendants to be gifted that by the doj.
A very generous plea bargain deal, did he get it because he is wealthy and white or Joe’s son or both?
So many privileges. True intersectionality.
Hunter was charged with no more than I would have been charged with.
One tax charge and one CCW charge. Nothing!
Everybody in my hood carries a gun.
Hunter pleaded guilty and took the deal like everybody else would have.
Sad that far right wingers try to make it more than it is.
Is that how federal plea deals work on your hood?
you have no idea what you are talking about. Did you pay any attention to the IRS officials testifying exactly how hunter received extraordinarily favorable treatment?
But sure, Assuming you make enough money for it to matter, don’t pay your taxes for a year. Let’s see if the doj just intentionally lets the statute of limitations run out without charging you with anything or making you pay what you owe
The evidence is piling up against the Biden Crime Family. Bribery, money laundering, influence peddling...it's all there.
It's getting more and more likely that Biden will be impeached
It's all far right wing propaganda and lies with no evidence.
Money laundering is Trump's next huge charge.
There are so many charges against Trump.
How does one keep them straight?
Pretty sure I would love to see his minions sitting in a prison cell right along side of him.
Trump, the lifelong criminal, has so much to answer for.
Are you denying that the Biden Family raked in millions from foreign governments and companies?
That's all wonderful, but how will that have any effect on Biden's lawyer?
Interesting defense for Hunter's lawyer.
Personally, I don't think it will fly.
Research says that the Bidens are honest and the Trumps are criminals.
You mean like "Russia Collusion"?
Your research is as faulty as the Russian Collusion hoax.
We've heard that for years. And, for years, they've all come up empty.
Perhaps you would be better served Googling "How much money did the Bidens take from foreign governments and companies?"
Just a sheer coincidence, I suppose, that Hunter Biden's name was chosen out of thousands of non-drug-addicted lawyers to receive millions for nothing. Sure thing.
LOL!
How gullibe are Biden defenders regarding this stuff?
Stop asking questions like this. They take it as a challenge and the idiocy gets worse as they trip all over themselves tying to out do each other.
Why do you doubt Hunter’s expertise that CEFC China Energy, State Energy HK, Burisma, that Romania company, Hudson West III LLC and Bohai Harvest desperately needed?
Just seems to me that large companies with big bank accounts aren't usually in the habit of employing drug addicts as counsel.
I'm sorry.
I do know better.
These are the same people who championed Michael Avenetti and accepted everything he said as divine truth. Some of them on this site even copied his "Basta!" tagline for awhile.
It's all good. We all need that little reminder every so often.
It's like a dream come true.
I feel like Professor Julius Kelp...
Slap fight cleaned up @1.3.
Chased my father down once when I was just a kid.
He had been going to these bankers conventions every year forever.
Madison Wisconsin was the Mecca of banker's conventions.
He hadn't come back from the last one and mom and I were worried.
I packed a bag (guitar case with no guitar) and hopped a train from Topeka.
It was the 60s so nobody looked twice at a long haired kid with a guitar case.
There were hippies on the train so I just blended in and hung back mostly.
The conductor never got around to asking me for my ticket (I blended in).
It was my first time 'jumping' a train. Not my last as it turned out.
It took jumping a few different trains before I found my way to Madison.
I knew the name of my father's hotel but didn't have a map. I had to ask.
I asked a kid who looked a lot like me. He smiled and said that he'd take me there.
That was my first mistake in the big cold city of Madison Wisconsin.
Somebody take over from here for a few paragraphs.
Sandy? Veronica? Any writers?
Since it was done on behalf of hunter Biden, is it even a problem in Biden’s America to lie to a judge?
"Nobody fucks with a Biden, man".
All the lies here ooze from the far right.
Is that an admission that you recognize the Biden Family took millions of dollars from foreign countries and companies?
Never happened. Just far right wing propaganda that came from a QAnon made-up person given the name Martin Aspen.
You should do the research before you embarrass yourself even more.
I'd say we await your proof of this but we also know how what the result will be.
Sure. Let's ALL pretend that there are not any bank records showing huge deposits to the Bidens coming from foreign govts. and companies.
yeah, THAT really makes sense----banks participating in some wild-ass hare-brained "conspiracy" theory to hurt Joe Biden...............is there nothing you will believe about the Bidens not approved by his handlers?
I have personally see you say this about a hundred times.
If the Bidens are so obviously guilty of something, what are the Republicans waiting for ? You can sit here saying until your tongue falls off that they are guilty but in the real world you have to have proof.
If you have any evidence to support some silly claim that the Biden Family didn't profit in the millions from foreigners, present it.
I would really love to see some since not a soul can prove that the banks were in on "getting Biden".
So suddenly proof matters? What changed?
It's right in there with all his proof on Trump that he "presented".
Funny how that when the deal was on the table the crackhead plead guilty. Now, not so much.
Bullseye!
Imagine how convinced Hunter Biden’s lawyers are that the gears of federal justice are so firmly biased in their favor, that they knew they could get away with openly committing fraud and obstruction of justice.
Prove it.
the "plea" agreement proved it!
The right wing wins, no way am I voting for Hunter Biden.
good, now to convince you not to vote for his father.
