(WASHINGTON) — President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden will sit for a deposition with the House Oversight and Judiciary committees on Feb. 28, the committee chairmen said in a statement on Thursday, after weeks of back and forth with the younger Biden’s legal team.

Hunter Biden had been subpoenaed to sit for a closed-door deposition in the Republican-led impeachment inquiry into the president but said he would testify only in a public forum and previously castigated the probe as “illegitimate.”

He faced a contempt vote for his refusal.
