Charged With Domestic Violence?
Domestic Violence Charges Don't Go Away After Things Cool Down.
If a young man in a bar gets drunk and hits someone and the police are called, that's considered an assault. This is a misdemeanor that generally carries few permanent consequences to the young man's record.
If that same man gets drunk on a date and hits his date, that is considered domestic or family violence. The complaining party cannot drop these charges. And if that young man is convicted, he loses his right to carry a firearm for the rest of his life. End of story.
