There’s Hunter: Hunter Biden Appears in Court for Paternity Dispute
Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, made a dramatic appearance in an Arkansas courtroom on Monday for a hearing in the child support case of his unclaimed 4-year-old daughter born out of wedlock. The mother of the child, Lunden Roberts, had previously reached an agreement with Biden for the child’s paternity and child support payments. However, the case was reopened when Biden requested adjustments to the child support payments. During the hearing, Biden’s new attorney, Abbe Lowell, revealed that the president’s son is currently paying $20,000 a month to the plaintiff. Independence County Circuit Judge Holly Meyer set deadlines for attorneys to submit discovery and begin depositions, stating that she expects the case to move forward.
Roberts’ family sat behind her along with Garrett Ziegler, whom Biden’s other attorney, Brent Langdon, described during a hearing last week as a potential expert witness in the case involving the contents of Biden’s laptop, which reportedly includes some income tax records. The judge on Monday said the ability to redact information is “being abused” by the Biden team. From the Biden team, Lancaster requested information on the value of Biden’s art, his salary/employment for the past five years, estates/funds from foreign persons/domestic persons/family members, flight/hotel payments, the reason for a promissory note from top Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris, and documents on business done with a Chinese firm.
In response, Langdon said his team has already turned over more than 490 documents. Biden’s attorney also requested Roberts’ tax returns, information on “fringe benefits” from her employer father, bank statements and Ziegler’s witness statements. The deadline for discovery was set for May 12 at 5 p.m. Ziegler’s deposition is to take place on May 22 at Lancaster’s office in Little Rock. Stay tuned for updates on this high-profile case.

Hunter Biden Ordered to Appear in Court for Paternity Case
Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, has been ordered to appear in court regarding the paternity case of his unacknowledged 4-year-old daughter. The case was filed in May 2019, and a DNA test conducted in January 2020 confirmed Biden as the father. However, President Biden has refused to acknowledge the child as his granddaughter.
Discovery Requests and Trial Dates
Biden’s attorney has been requested to provide documents on his tax returns, information on “fringe benefits” from his father, bank statements, and witness statements. The deadline for discovery was set for May 12 at 5 p.m. Biden’s team has already turned over more than 490 documents, including documents on business done with a Chinese firm, flight and hotel payments, and a promissory note from top Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris.
Ziegler’s deposition is scheduled for May 22, and a status conference hearing will be held on May 23 to address discovery requests, any contempt filings, and a potential request to push back the trial date. Depositions for both parties and witnesses will take place June 13-16. The trial start date is set for July 24.
The Biden Name and the Paternity Case
Roberts’ attorneys wrote in a December name-change motion that “The Biden name is now synonymous with being well-educated, successful, financially acute, and politically powerful.” In rebuttal, Biden’s attorney demanded “strict proof thereof that such request is in the best interest of the child.”
Final Thoughts
The case has garnered significant media attention, and the judge has ruled that both Biden and Roberts must be present for every future hearing. Danielle Wallace, a reporter for Fox News Digital, is covering the case and can be contacted for story tips.
