The judge in Delaware has officially ended the case against Hunter Biden just two days after President Joe Biden gave his son a blanket pardon.

“In the absence of binding precedent” for a case that had yet to reach sentencing, “all proceedings in this case are hereby terminated,” U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika wrote in a brief docket entry Tuesday.

President Biden granted his son a “full and unconditional pardon” on Sunday evening after he and members of his administration claimed for months that he would not pardon his son’s convictions for federal gun and tax crimes.

In announcing the pardon, President Biden claimed that “raw politics … infected” his son’s case.

“There was none and never has been any evidence of vindictive or selective prosecution in this case,” Weiss wrote in court filings.

“In a court filing Monday, prosecutors had urged Noreika to terminate the case instead of dismissing the indictment, in order to allow the record of the case to continue to exist. Prosecutors in special counsel David Weiss’ office, who brought both the gun case and separate tax-related charges against Hunter Biden, on Monday made a similar filing to the federal judge overseeing Hunter Biden’s tax case in California,” ABC News reported.
