Domestic violence, a criminal offense, is usually is charged as a misdemeanor. There is usually a presumption of supervised release after a first offense. Cases that include serious injury or repeat offenses will normally lead to harsher penalties. In a family law case, domestic violence is normally alleged by one of the spouses against the other on an ex parte basis. This means that the person accused of domestic violence is not told of the charges against him or her until the court of law issues a protective order.

A protective order often covers actions other than domestic violence or assaultive behavior. Harassment, stalking, intimidation, or other unwanted behavior also can be restrained by the court with further incidents punished as a violation of a domestic violence protective order. The person affected by the domestic violence protective order may bring the case on for a full hearing within thirty days of the initial application. Often, the court will change the terms of the protective order, or cancel the order, depending on the facts are brought out at the hearing.

In a divorce or paternity case, it is essential for the person restricted by the terms of a protective order to make sure that his or her side of the story is carefully presented in court. Furthermore, if a parent has a protective order outstanding against them, there legal right to physical custody of the child will be seriously damaged, and there is a chance that parenting time will be allowed solely on a supervised basis.

At The Law Offices of Tony Zirkle, we can review and evaluate the circumstances of your case to make sure that your side of the demonstrated to the court as effectively and persuasively as possible. Without careful presentation, your interests as a parent could be seriously jeopardized.
