Hunter Biden, the son of presidential candidate Joe Biden, is the "biological and legal father" of a child he fathered with an ex-stripper, an Arkansas judge ruled Tuesday, contradicting the younger Biden's previous denials that he had any role in the pregnancy.
In an order establishing paternity, Independence County, Ark., Circuit Judge Holly Meyer noted that the results of DNA tests indicated Biden was the father "with near scientific certainty," and instructed the Arkansas Department of Health to issue a birth certificate listing Biden as the father of 29-year-old Lunden Alexis Roberts' child.
Roberts, who The New York Post reported was a stripper at a Washington, D.C., club that Biden patronized, received "primary physical and legal custody" of the child. In previous filings, Roberts told the court that Hunter Biden "had no involvement in the child's life since the child's birth, never interacted with the child, never parented the child," and "could not identify the child out of a photo lineup."
Biden “shall have visitation with the child as agreed between the parties,” Judge Meyer ruled.
The next hearing in the case is now set for Jan. 29 at 9:30 a.m. ET, to address "temporary child support for the minor child and other matters," the judge wrote, adding that the parties have until Jan. 16 to comply with all "pending discovery" which is currently "past due." Another hearing is set for the morning of March 13 to handle any remaining discovery issues, with a final hearing on May 13 to set "permanent child support for the minor child."

A good lawyer will hire a forensic accountant.
It wouldn't surprise me that in extraordinary situations where payment might be a concern and the defendant has large accumulated wealth that the court might be able to order the defendant to fund an annuity that would cover the child-support payments until the kid is an adult.
