A federal judge directed parties involved in the ongoing case against Hunter Biden to refer any issues or questions to her directly and not to the clerk's office, according to a court order filed on Friday.
U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika said she made the demand in light of"apparent misrepresentations" that Hunter Biden's legal team allegedly made this week and after a clerk employee's email was made public by an attorney for House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith ."I have already discussed my concerns about apparent misrepresentations made to a member of this Court’s Clerk’s Office," Noreika wrote.
The representative, attorney Jessica Bengels of Hunter Biden's firm Latham & Watkins, asked the clerk to remove allegedly sensitive documents about the younger Biden from the court docket, Kittila claimed. Noreika said the court investigated Kittila's claim about misrepresentations and found it to be credible.
