Lawyers for President-elect Donald Trump have requested the dismissal of his conviction for falsifying business records, citing President Joe Biden’s recent comments while pardoning his son, Hunter Biden.

The 72-page motion to dismiss, filed in New York on Tuesday, argues that Biden’s statements undermine the fairness of Trump’s prosecution, calling it politically motivated. The legal filing quotes Biden’s remarks from his announcement of a 10-year pardon for Hunter Biden, covering all crimes charged or uncharged.
