Hunter Biden Drops Laptop Lawsuit Against Giuliani

-

Case closed…

On Thursday, Hunter Biden‘s attorneys moved to dismiss a lawsuit against former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani and his former lawyer.

had accused Giuliani and Robert Costello of being “primarily responsible” for the “total annihilation” of his digital privacy by distributing private information found on a now-infamous laptop.

The suit sought $75,000 in damages. Attorneys for all three parties signed the dismissal, which stipulates that each must pay their own legal fees. It must be approved by a judge before being finalized, according to The Hill.

The laptop at the center of the lawsuit contained some of Biden's personal information. Republicans focused on the laptop's lurid contents and its authenticity as a campaign issue after it was disseminated to the public by the Bidens.

A computer repair shop owner said Biden dropped the laptop off at his store in April 2019 and never returned to pick it up. The owner later admitted in his 2022 book to reviewing private and sensitive material from the laptop before contacting Republicans to review and share the material.

The dismissal comes the same week Biden was convicted of three felony counts related to illegally purchasing a firearm. He could face up to 25 years in prison for the charges, though a sentence that long is unlikely for a first-time offender.

Giuliani is also facing a number of pressing legal problems as he continues with bankruptcy proceedings. (RELATED: Rudy Giuliani Faces Another Lawsuit From Election Workers)
