A pre-trial hearing for Hunter Biden’s federal gun trial is set for Friday in Delaware, after multiple failed attempts by the first son to have charges brought against him dismissed.

Hunter Biden pleaded not guilty to federal gun charges in the U.S. District Court for Delaware, after Special Counsel David Weiss charged him with making a false statement in the purchase of a firearm; making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a licensed firearm dealer; and one count of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance.

Hallie Biden may be required to testify during Hunter Biden's trial. A firearm transaction report reviewed by Fox News indicated that Hunter purchased a gun earlier that month. On the firearm transaction report, Hunter answered in the negative when asked if he was 'an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance.' Hunter was discharged from the Navy in 2014 after testing positive for cocaine.
