Hunter Biden again seeks to postpone gun trial

• Last week, the president's son also asked a federal judge to delay a separate trial over federal tax charges in California, which is set to start later next month.
• Biden has pleaded not guilty in both cases.

State of play: Biden's lawyers asked the Third Circuit Court of Appeals to review the gun charges case and rehear his bid to dismiss the indictment.

• They also argued that the scheduling doesn't leave enough time between his two trials.
• "There is no urgency in having an immediate trial of Robert Hunter Biden, but the district court is pressing forward with a June 3, 2024 trial and imposing all the pretrial burdens that come with that," his lawyers wrote in the filing.

Catch up quick: Biden was indicted last year on three counts related to his alleged illegal possession of a firearm.

• Biden was accused of falsifying a federal firearms form and illegal possession of a firearm while using a narcotic.
