Charges of Domestic Assault and Battery do Not Issue After Clerk Magistrate Hearing-1
Our client is a non-citizen working on her PhD from a top ten university. In September of this year she and her husband got into a heated argument over money. The argument turned violent. Personal items of significant value were destroyed. As the matter escalated the husband called the police. They arrived to find the husband bloodied and injured. He explained that during the incident our client struck him several times. Fortunately, even though an arrest was made no criminal complaint was initially filed.
