Charges changed to corporal injury to spouse or cohabitant and bail went up to 100,000. Is this excessive?
NEED MORE INFO...BUT PROBABLY NOT.

unless the judge orders/approves........NO
have your lawyer put the matter back on the calendar for a modification of your sentence. Maybe having your lawyer talk to the deputy DA first to explain your circumstances.

In addition, you should NOT be discussing your case on an open forum like this.
However, it is always a good idea to contact a local attorney that handles these types of cases in the... Read more »

He was on parole and subsequently arrested and placed on probation for DV. The judge ordered the Peaceful Contact at that time. The parole officer did not place the condition due to the conviction. She placed it because I asked her to help me retrieve a vehicle that was registered to both of us... Read more »

He was convicted based on his prior convictions, and false statements in the report he was sentenced to eight years

I have a restraining order. He filed one back. His mother is retaliatory and trying to evict me from the apartment, and I would like to file a civil suit as well
