Hunter Biden Loses Law License in Connecticut

Hunter Biden, son of former President Joe Biden, has been stripped of his law license in Connecticut. This decision came after he agreed to the disbarment, following complaints about his past legal troubles. The issues began with federal charges. Hunter was found guilty of lying on a gun purchase form in 2018. He claimed he wasn't using drugs, but prosecutors said otherwise. He was also accused of not paying over $1. 4 million in taxes. He avoided a trial by pleading guilty to some charges just before it was set to start.In Connecticut, a judge ruled that Hunter violated lawyer ethics. The judge said he acted dishonestly and deceitfully. Hunter admitted to some of the misconduct but not all. He had already lost his law license in Washington, D. C. , earlier this year. During the hearing, one of the complainants objected. He argued that Hunter should have admitted to criminal wrongdoing. However, the judge pointed out that Hunter had been pardoned for those crimes. Hunter became a lawyer in Connecticut in 1997, right after graduating from Yale Law School. Now, his legal career has come to an end in the state.
