Q: How can I beat a good behavior bond that was taken out on me?
I met my husband 3 years after he separated. Despite me not having anything to say to her she's tried everything to undermine and disrespect me. She showed up at my house (shes not allowed there) I called 911 and she left. Two days later I was served. Shes accusing me of terrorizing her, assaulting, threatening, harassing, etc. Got an attorney and when I arrived at court, he was discussing the case and agreeing to her conditions without informing me, but more so accepting some form of wrongdoing when I have not spoken to this person prior to that in 4 years. She's obviously provided false testimony and evidence. The next court date is in a month, I'm firing this guy, but I'm scared because she's obviously convinced the prosecutor's office. Can I request to see the evidence against me? How can I defend myself if I don't in what she is using and therefore can't provide an alibi.

A: I would first talk to your attorney before considering firing him. He could be potentially trying to protect you from unnecessary stresses. BAsed on the case, he probably just trying to pre-try the case to provide you with all your options. You haven't accepted anything unless you pled to it.
