Hunter Biden judge tells people to contact her directly, not the clerk

Good day all. The original sweetheart deal cooked up by the DoJ and the lawyers for the First Junkie, Hoovernose Biden, collapsed when the judge started asking some very pointed questions. Prior to that, Hoovernose’s lawyers went to the court clerk to have some amicus briefs removed from the records.

What really set things off here was that the filings were from the House Ways and Means committee chairman, Representative Jason Smith (R-MO). Someone claiming to be from Smiths office pretended to be from Smith’s office and got the clerk to remove the filings. When U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika found out, she went ballistic. Now she’s telling all interested parties to talk to her, not the clerk. Here are the details from the Washington Examiner:

A federal judge directed parties involved in the case against Hunter Biden to refer any problems 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 (R-MO).

“I have already discussed my concerns about apparent misrepresentations made to a member of this Court’s Clerk’s Office,” Noreika wrote. “In addition to that, in a submission addressing those apparent misrepresentations … counsel for the House Ways and Means Committee needlessly included on the public docket an email from a Clerk’s Office staff member that contained her personal contact information.”

The levels of lawlessness regarding this whole deal for Hunter Biden is beyond stunning. That the Biden Defense team did this, and thought they would get away with it makes me think that the “Fix is in” and that they won’t have to worry about the DoJ coming after them. They do have to worry about Judge Noreika, and she is furious over this.

She lauded the work of the clerk’s office staff before adding, “I will not tolerate or countenance them being ill-used, disrespected, or lied to.”

I suspect there are going to be some additional verification procedures put into place to keep some other crooked defense attorney from trying this again.

On Tuesday, one day before Hunter Biden’s plea hearing, Theodore Kittila, an attorney representing Smith, alleged that a representative for President Joe Biden’s son called the clerk’s office and pretended to be associated with Smith’s legal team. The representative, attorney Jessica Bengels of Hunter Biden’s firm Latham and Watkins, asked the clerk to remove allegedly sensitive documents about the younger Biden from the court docket, Kittila claimed.

Smith had submitted an amicus brief ahead of the hearing asking Noreika to consider whistleblower testimonies he had heard in May from two IRS criminal investigators, who alleged Hunter Biden had received preferential treatment in his case.

The answer to this is “Oh HELL YES!” This is a classic example of the two-tiered justice system that the Deep State Uniparty has put into place, and a reason why so many people are angry to the point of pricing rope, tar and feathers.

The amicus brief included documents, which are now under seal, that the younger Biden’s legal team sought to hide from the publicly visible docket, first through the phone call to the clerk and later through a motion to seal.

Now why would they hide these documents? Because the contain information that blows huge holes in the deal that the Garland/Biden DoJ cooked up to keep Hoovernose out of jail.

Noreika said the court investigated Kittila’s claim about misrepresentations and found it to be credible.

Bengels “represented that she worked with Mr. Kittila and requested the amicus materials be taken down because they contained sensitive grand jury, taxpayer and Social Security information. It appears that the caller misrepresented her identity and who she worked for in an attempt to improperly convince the Clerk’s Office to remove the amicus materials from the docket,” Noreika wrote on the eve of the plea hearing.

She then directed Hunter Biden’s legal team to submit to the court immediately any case it had for why they should not be sanctioned for the alleged untruth.

I honestly don’t know what the sanctions for something like this would be. At the least, the lawyers involved need to be disbarred. I would think that criminal charges would also be in the offing. If any of my three readers have a legal background, perhaps leaving something in the comments would be helpful.

His attorneys adamantly denied Kittila’s allegation in a response, saying it “appear[ed] to stem from an unfortunate and unintentional miscommunication between a staff member at our firm and employees of the Court.”

The plea deal between Hunter Biden and U.S. Attorney David Weiss of Delaware unexpectedly fell through the next day because of concerns Noreika had with provisions of the deal that could possibly preclude the younger Biden from future charges.

Pity that the U.S. Attorney had the bad luck to go in front of an honest judge instead of an Obama or Biden judge. Without question, the deal would have already been rubber stamped and Hoovernose would be free as a bird.

She did not address in the hearing the incident involving Bengels from the day before, but in response to a motion to seal from Hunter Biden’s attorneys, she ordered Smith to submit any objections to the motion by Monday.

I have little doubt that Representative Smith’s lawyers already have this typed up and ready to be filed. I suspect some of the language being used, excluding words with four letters in them, are going to be pointed and suggest things like tampering with evidence, interfering with a judicial process, and potentially interfering with a congressional matter. I also won’t be surprised if Smith’s office and his lawyers aren’t already looking at what they can do to Hoovernose’s lawyers and the law firm they represent.

Kittila and Chris Clark, an attorney representing Hunter Biden in the case, did not respond to a request for comment.

What could they say that wouldn’t incriminate them further? I don’t know how all this will play out, but seeing the lawyer who did this disbarred and criminally charged would be a good start. Forcing Hoovernose to go to trial and take his chances with a jury of his peers, (I’m sure they can find plenty of crack addicts within a few blocks of the courthouse), has to be done. Any deal that precludes felony convictions and prison time will be seen is a load of crap and will put yet another nail in the coffin of the Republic and the Constitution.
