Hunter Biden Drops Lawsuit Against Fox News — for the Second Time
- On June 6, 2025, Hunter Biden voluntarily and permanently dismissed his legal action against Fox News and its associated parties, marking the second occasion he has withdrawn this case.
- The lawsuit, filed in the Southern District of New York, stemmed from a 2022 Fox News digital miniseries that portrayed a dramatized mock trial concerning Hunter Biden's overseas financial dealings.
- Fox News defended the dismissal by citing First Amendment protections and New York's anti-SLAPP law, with a May 23 letter warning of a motion to dismiss and potential recovery of costs and fees.
- A Fox News spokesperson said they were ‘pleased to move on’ from what they called a ‘meritless case’ and a ‘politically motivated stunt’ after Hunter Biden withdrew the lawsuit.
- This dismissal effectively brings the lawsuit to a close, preventing Hunter Biden from pursuing the same legal claims again and ending a phase of his continuing legal challenges involving the media.
