Hunter Biden to be deposed in Arkansas child support case

Hunter Biden will be deposed in Arkansas as part of the contentious paternity case involving the first son and the mother of his out-of-wedlock daughter, court documents show. 

Biden, who since September of last year has sought to lower his monthly child support payments to former stripper Lunden Roberts, will answer questions from Roberts’ attorneys under oath in Little Rock, Ark., on Friday.

President Biden’s 53-year-old son will likely face questions related to financial records he’s allegedly been withholding throughout the legal saga with the woman with whom he had a month-long affair. 

Hunter is also expected to appear in Arkansas court next month, where a judge will consider 32-year-old Roberts’ bid for sanctions against the first son for allegedly refusing to turn over the financial records — including having him jailed for up to six months.

Roberts has also petitioned the court to toss out Hunter’s request to lower his $20,000 monthly child support payments for their 4-year-old daughter Navy Joan Roberts and to dismiss his opposition to efforts to change their daughter’s last name to Biden.

In public remarks, the president has refused to acknowledge his seventh grandchild — who was born out of wedlock. 

“I have six grandchildren. And I’m crazy about them. And I speak to them every single day. Not a joke,” the president said during a White House take-your-child-to-work event in May. 

Hunter has cited a “substantial material change” in his financial situation as the reason he wants his monthly payments to Roberts lowered. 

In May, Hunter claimed he’d already paid Roberts $750,000 since a DNA test confirmed Navy was his biological child. 

However, he was chided by Circuit Court Judge Holly Meyer for overly redacting financial statements. 

The initial paternity case was filed by Roberts against Hunter in 2019 after he denied being Navy’s father.
