You can try to speak to the DA's office but it is up to them whether to go forward with the charges. If your boyfriend actually pushed you down the stairs as you described, you need to really think about this relationship and your safety.

I would speak to your daughter's attorney. I'm not sure why bailing her out will hurt her case, but I certainly don't know all of the facts.

There are no guarantees. However, if this is your first arrest and the injuries are minor, there is certainly a chance to get the case dismissed.

It depends on your prior criminal record, if there is any, as well as how you "broke" the order of protection. For example, if you broke the order of protection by assaulting the individual, you are in a more serious situation then if you merely made a phone call.
