Hunter Biden was convicted of three felony gun charges related to lying on a federal form when purchasing a revolver in 2018 about using illegal drugs. The Supreme Court is deciding a case called US v. Rahimi that could impact Hunter Biden's case. Rahimi is about whether people subject to domestic violence restraining orders can own guns. Andrew Willinger of the Duke Center for Firearms Law stated that if the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Rahimi, it would give Hunter Biden “a lot of ammunition” to challenge his conviction. The Supreme Court is expected to rule in Rahimi by the end of June.
