Q: My husband is on probation and pled guilty to dui and domestic battery. He has been threatening me for the past week....
I have texts from him threatening myself and my parents house. He is also court ordered to stay out of liquor stores and is in them almost daily and drinking even though he is ordered to be in aa and not drink or be on the premises of places selling primarily liquor. Is there anything I can do legally?
A: Talk to the police and his probation officer.
A: call the police and contact his probation officer to make a report. I would also file an order of protection against him as well.
A: If you have not already, you should file an Order of Protection and show the Judge the text messages he has sent you that are of threatening nature. You should also call the police and file a police report.
