Hunter Biden’s lawyers will press a judge to delay his trial that’s set to begin next month in Los Angeles on charges that he schemed to avoid paying 1.4 million (£1.09 million) dollars in taxes.

President Joe Biden’s son is seeking to push the June 20 trial date back until at least September, noting that he is also scheduled to stand trial in Delaware on June 3 on firearms charges.
