President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden will appear in a Delaware courthouse Wednesday to formally agree to the plea deal he negotiated last month with federal prosecutors -- a resolution to a year's long probe that inflamed his father's political adversaries.
The younger Biden in June agreed to plead guilty to a pair of misdemeanor tax charges and enter into a pretrial diversion program that will allow him to avoid prosecution on a separate felony gun charge.
U.S. Judge Maryellen Norieka will have the opportunity to either reject or accept the terms of the deal on Wednesday morning.
