Hunter Biden offered to change his not-guilty plea in a federal tax evasion case, his lawyer told the BBC, just moments before the trial was set to begin on Thursday, APA reports.
He had previously denied prosecutors' accusations that he intentionally avoided paying $1.4m (£1m) in income tax between 2016-2019.
His last-minute reversal, announced in a Los Angeles courtroom as jury selection was about to start, could lead to his second criminal conviction this year.
It will need to be accepted by the judge, and the court is adjourned until 11:00 local time (19:00 BST).
