Hunter Biden is seeking to dismiss his criminal convictions and tax charges by arguing that the special counsels prosecuting him were unlawfully appointed, following Judge Aileen Cannon's decision to dismiss charges against Donald Trump due to the special counsel being unconstitutionally appointed. Biden's lawyers reference Judge Cannon and Justice Clarence Thomas's questioning of the special counsels' appointments, highlighting similarities between Trump and Biden's cases. The legal battle raises questions about the constitutionality of the special counsels' appointments, with potential implications for both defendants. Hunter Biden's defense aims to leverage the legal developments stemming from Trump's case to challenge the validity of the prosecutions against him, emphasizing concerns about political targeting and procedural irregularities.
