The trial of US President Joe Biden's son, Hunter, for illegal gun possession will begin on June 3, a federal judge in the east coast state of Delaware announced of the country.

Hunter Biden, 54, is one of the favorite targets of his father's Republican opponents, starting with Donald Trump. The latter consider him the Achilles heel of the Democratic president.

Judge Maryellen Noreika assigned the weeks of June 3 and 10 to the selection of the jury, the schedule of debates to be fixed subsequently after consultation of both parties.

Hunter Biden pleaded not guilty in the case in October.

If convicted, Hunter Biden faces up to 25 years in prison, but in practice, such prosecutions alone rarely result in prison time.
