The Hill reported:
A federal judge agreed to push back Hunter Biden’s first criminal sentencing three weeks, now scheduling it for Dec. 4.
The president’s son’s sentencing was already slated for after the election, but his attorney asked to delay the Nov. 13 date because of overlap with Biden’s other ongoing legal battles.
Special Counsel David Weiss opposed the delay, court documents show, but U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika in a brief order quickly agreed to the request.
