Deadbeat Dad Hunter Biden to Skip Scheduled Deposition, Cites Coronavirus and His Pregnant Wife as Excuse


Hunter Biden

Deadbeat dad Hunter Biden told the Arkansas judge in a new filing Tuesday that he won’t be able to make this week’s scheduled deposition, citing the Coronavirus and his pregnant wife who is due to give birth within a couple weeks.

The crackhead-turned-hipster-artist was ordered to appear in an Arkansas court deposition on Wednesday in the ongoing paternity suit filed by his baby mama Lunden Roberts.

An Arkansas judge recently demanded Hunter Biden show up for a deposition on Wednesday, rejecting his requests to wait until April.

“He needs to make himself available and unless his hair is on fire, he needs to be in Arkansas and he needs to be in a deposition,” Independence County Circuit Court Judge Holly Meyer told Biden’s attorneys. “My question to you is, why could your client not be available until after April 1? All the information I have is that he’s unemployed.”

Hunter is once again snubbing the court because he believes he is above the law.

“Defendant requests continuance of the hearing as he is unavailable to attend due to his wife’s due date in 2 and a half weeks or less and risks involved with travel,” the new filing states accroding to the Free Beacon.

Biden’s lawyers argued that Hunter should not be required to travel to Arkansas at all because traveling is “burdensome and oppressive.”

“It is unsafe for the Defendant to travel, as travel restrictions have been implemented both domestically and internationally, particularly on airlines, due to the coronavirus,” the filing states. “Setting aside personal endangerment, Defendant reasonably believes that such travel unnecessarily exposes his wife and unborn child to this virus. California, in particular, has been the site of numerous reported cases of exposure.”

“The tremendously elevated media scrutiny creates some physical risks and logistics difficulties with travel to Arkansas, invades the privacy of the Defendant and his 8 and a half month pregnant wife, threatens to complicate the Court’s ability to conduct a public hearing, creates a highly prejudicial environment from Defendant, and cannot be in the child’s or his mother’s interest in any way,” the lawyers argue.

Hunter Biden’s baby mama Lunden Roberts last week filed a new motion requesting Biden be held in contempt for continuing to withhold financial documents from the court in her paternity suit.
