Charges of Domestic Assault and Battery and Assault and Battery Means of a Dangerous Weapon to be Dismissed After Pretrial Probation
Nearly two years ago the defendant and his girlfriend were in Massachusetts visiting for the weekend. They were staying at an upscale hotel having drinks in the bar. The two started arguing. The dispute escalated and the defendant then struck the victim with her purse in the back of the head. The police were called. The woman claimed that the defendant had been violent with her in the past. Two employees of the hotel bar claimed to have witnessed the attack as well. Our client was located in his room and arrested. He was charged with domestic assault and battery G.L. c. 265 section 13M and assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon under G.L. c. 265 section 15A. Attorney Neyman was hired immediately. After two years of litigation we were able to get the district attorney’s office and the judge to agree to pretrial probation under G.L. c. 276 section 87. In six months all charges will be dismissed.
