Without reviewing the applicable law or having access to any of the facts of this matter, I would say yes but unfortunately this not a simple question suited to an informal online forum such as this one. You should consult a lawyer on this. Perhaps the charity already has representation. Good luck.

A Massachusetts attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. If you go through Supreme Court decisions, you'll find more than you need. The Supreme Court has as blog - that might help get you started in the right direction. Good luck

APPEAL THE TICKET!! There are a number of very important reassons to take the appeal.

Domestic violence with my children's father, in which I am the victim, have landed DCF in my life for the third time.

It may be possible to avoid a trip to Massachusetts if you hire a criminal defense attorney here. No guarantee that the judge will agree to waive your appearance, but I have been able to do it successfully for several out-of-state clients.
