Motion to Dismiss Domestic Assault and Battery Case Allowed
The defendant was charged with domestic assault and battery under G.L. c. 265 section 13M. It was alleged that several months ago a truck driver operating on a major Massachusetts highway observed the defendant and a woman on the side of the road engaged in what appeared to be a heated altercation. The man contacted the police and told them he thought that the man was hitting the woman but could not be sure. The police went to the scene and observed the man and woman, still there and appearing to be arguing next to their car. The officer inquired of both parties. Each separately told the officer that there was no actual violence or threat, just arguing. Nevertheless, the man was charged with domestic assault and battery. Attorney Neyman was hired. A motion to dismiss was scheduled and heard. The judge allowed the motion and the case was dismissed.
