Hunter Biden is claiming he is too broke to continue a legal battle he launched against his nemesis, ex Trump White House staffer Garrett Ziegler, blaming the Palisades Fire that destroyed his home.
The claim, made by Hunter’s lawyer in a letter to Ziegler’s attorney this week, indicates the former First Son is out of cash, can no longer tap his ‘sugar brother’ Hollywood attorney Kevin Morris for funds, and is not being bailed out by Democrat donors.
The letter, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal, says Hunter ‘lacks the resources to continue this litigation at this time’.
A source close to the case also told DailyMail.com that the pardoned felon is planning to quit California and move back to the east coast.
The legal letter claimed hard-up Hunter’s financial woe ‘have been exacerbated after the fires in the Pacific Palisades in early January upended Plaintiff’s life by rendering his rental house unlivable for an extended period of time’.
Hunter’s $15,800-per-month Malibu rental was razed by the Palisades Fire that swept through an entire neighborhood on January 7.
The $4million home was a three-bedroom, three-bath 1950s idyll with panoramic views over the Pacific.
In September 2023 Hunter, 55, sued Ziegler, 29, and his right-wing nonprofit Marco Polo in California federal court for alleged computer hacking, after they published a 644-page report on his alleged illegal activity based on material from his infamous abandoned laptop.
