President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, is suing lawyer Rudy Giuliani, alleging he engaged in computer fraud relating to the laptop Hunter Biden allegedly abandoned at a Delaware computer repair shop.
The lawsuit (pdf) was filed on Tuesday in California’s central federal court district, and names Mr. Giuliani and another lawyer, Robert Costello, as defendants. Mr. Giuliani and Mr. Costello are accused of violating the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (18 U.S.C. § 1030), another California law pertaining to computer fraud, and a California law that prohibits false advertising—all in an effort to gain access to Mr. Biden’s computer files.
