Hunter Biden faces potential jail time as his child’s mother petitions for his arrest over alleged violations of their 2023 child support settlement in Arkansas court.
Mother Seeks Civil Penalties Against Biden
Lunden Alexis Roberts filed a motion on January 13, 2026, in Arkansas’ Sixteenth Judicial Circuit seeking Hunter Biden’s arrest for alleged non-compliance with their child support agreement. Roberts accuses Biden of failing to provide required financial disclosures mandated under their 2023 settlement, prompting her request for civil penalties including potential jail time. The motion represents an escalation in their ongoing Independence County case involving support for their daughter born in 2018.

Judge Orders Financial Transparency
Judge Don McSpadden responded to Roberts’ petition by ordering both parties to release financial records from the past five years on January 16, 2026. The court’s mandate aims to resolve disputes over Biden’s alleged failure to disclose his financial situation as required under their settlement terms. Roberts filed what sources describe as an “emotional plea” accusing Biden of violating the agreement, though no direct response from Biden has been reported publicly.
Legal Battle Rooted in Paternity Dispute
The current enforcement action stems from a 2018 romantic encounter between Roberts and Hunter Biden that resulted in their daughter’s birth. Roberts initially pursued paternity confirmation amid Biden’s well-documented personal struggles with addiction and public scrutiny surrounding his legal troubles. After establishing paternity through DNA testing, the parties reached a settlement in 2023 requiring Biden to make monthly child support payments and maintain financial transparency.
Accountability Demands Challenge Political Privilege
Roberts’ legal action highlights broader concerns about accountability among America’s political elite. While Biden has faced federal convictions for gun and tax violations, this civil family court matter focuses specifically on personal financial responsibility and compliance with court-ordered support obligations. The case demonstrates how even powerful political families must answer to basic legal requirements when it comes to supporting their children, reinforcing the principle that no one stands above the law.
