The judge overseeing Hunter Biden’s paternity case in Arkansas has abruptly recused himself, according to a new filing.

Independence County Circuit Judge Don McSpadden didn’t give a reason why he was removing himself from the case between Joe Biden’s son and Lunden Alexis Roberts over the child she claims Hunter fathered.

The jurist’s recusal on New Year’s Eve comes a week after a Florida-based private investigation firm D&A Investigations Inc. filed a “notice of fraud and counterfeiting and production of evidence” in the matter.

In court papers, the firm claimed Hunter “is the subject of more than one criminal investigation involving fraud, money laundering and a counterfeiting scheme.”

The alleged $156 counterfeiting scheme involves Burisma Holdings, the Ukrainian energy company where Hunter sat on the board of directors while his father was vice president.

McSpadden struck D&A’s request from the record, saying it violated state procedural rules. Hunter’s lawyers have denied the firm’s allegations.

D&A is seeking to be added as a party in the paternity case, though McSpadden recused himself before he could rule on that motion.

DNA tests ruled with “scientific certainty” that Hunter is the father of Lunden’s baby, born in August 2018.

Asked about the judge’s recusal, Roberts’ attorney Clint Lancaster told the Arkansas Democrat Gazette, “One of the clearest indicators of a judge’s integrity is when he or she recuses from a case. It highlights the ethos and values that make the judiciary such a powerful, separate branch of government. Our client sincerely thanks Judge McSpadden for his time and attention to what has become a difficult and convoluted child support matter.”

The next hearing in the case is scheduled for Jan. 7.
