You are incorrect when you say "they revoked him". They did not revoke his probation. They (the prosecutors in his case) filed a Motion to Revoke his probation and he is waiting for his hearing on that motion. Only the judge in his case can revoke his probation.
You should ask... Read more »

There doesn't sound like anything else to do in terms of criminal law. However, in civil law you could seek a protective order based on family or dating violence... and perhaps even stalking based on the voicemails. You might be able to sue him for the cost of medical treatment but unless... Read more »
No. Any conviction or deferred adjudication on a case involving Family Violence renders the defendant permanently ineligible to seal arrest records with an order of nondisclosure.

All I did was defend myself and I didn't press charges but she lied and press charges on me my lawyer said she can't beat the case but she's a court appointed lawyer do I need to get another lawyer
The result of a criminal case will depend on the quality of the prosecutor's evidence, the skill and diligence of the defense attorney, and some degree of luck. You can't control the evidence or the luck, but you can hire a better defense attorney. On average, expensive attorneys get... Read more »

She can sue you for whatever she thinks you owe her, and you can file a counterclaim for what you think she owes, and then a judge can sort it all out. You could hire a civil attorney to increase the chances that you'll win but it would probably be faster, cheaper, and less heart-wrenching to... Read more »
You can ask the District Attorney's office to dismiss the case and perhaps even sign an affidavit of nonprosecution. However, it is the prosecutor's duty to decide whether or not to seek a conviction and they often decide to move forward in domestic violence cases against the wishes of... Read more »
I was arrested 2 times for 3 different cases. The first was 01/2017 and the second was two charges on 01/2018. All cases were dropped due to insufficient evidence or dismissed. The first happened in California and the 2nd happened in Hunt county Texas.
This question is best answered by an Employment Law attorney in Alaska. In Texas, arrest records are public information that appears on a background check until or unless they have been properly expunged... and dismissed cases are not automatically expunged. You'd need to ask a California... Read more »

My fiance just bailed out on an assault family violence charge and now he has a failure to appear warrent. And possibly other pending charges,. He also moved states while on bond
I'm not 100% clear on what you are asking but I notice that this question is asked from California about Texas law. Moving out of state is not necessarily a violation of bond. It depends on the conditions of bond. There are some conditions required by the judge and other conditons that are... Read more »
She harasses me by phone and leaves threatening voicemails with lots of profanity. I have not made any attempts to make contact with her. Should I?
Who cares if you had sex with her friend? That isn't illegal. If you don't want anything to do with her then you should probably just block her on your phone and on social media.
If it becomes unbearable then you could call law enforcement on the non-emergency number and ask for... Read more »
