Q: Arrested disposition: referred to DA, misdemeanor AB in presence of child, 11/6/16. Can charges still be filed?
Arrested, never arraigned, just released. DHS did investigation since foster child was in our care, found isolated incident, no referrals made. It was a scuffle over cell phone which ex took due to unwanted divorce (still staying in same residence), woke me up middle night, taunting, angry over texts. I sent all children to bedroom and when finally retrieved my phone called police bc he refused to leave residence. He called 911 claiming I viciously attacked him. The ems were literally laughing at his claims, but he had a few tiny scratches, while my toes were broken. He stood there laughing, "Well, I got what I wanted." My ex has been harassing me now for over a year via text, I'd like to file epo but afraid this previous will have an effect. He has also made threats to boyfriend who is filing police report.
A:
Don't worry about the old incident? Just file now, and be prepared to prove your claims.
