Hire an attorney to represent and advise you. Defendant definitely needs an attorney also. That is a serious charge with permanent consequences. Do not talk to anyone else about this, especially the State.

Hire a TN attorney to take you to Court, probably off the Docket. If possible, get it dismissed.
Will it show up on a background check for K1visa?
answered on Mar 19, 2024
It should have been expunged in the Court in which the charge was before. Call the Court Clerk and ask about your docket number. If not expunged, do it now.

DA is a serious charge worst than some felonies. Boyfriend needs a good attorney who knows how to handle this case so it gets dismissed and you do not go to jail. He should not plead to anything short of diversion, and prepare for trial with you as the victim/witness.
In danger from abuser. And can testify to tht themselves.

Not sure of what you are asking. I suggest the person charged with a crime hire an attorney as DA is worst than some felonies, for life. The victims need to keep their mouths shut . There are alot of bureaucrats and LEOs that make their living off this kind of thing.

What is your question? It sounds like either an aggravated assault or justifiable self defense.

No...That misdemeanor is worst than some felonies. You might apply for a governor's pardon sometime. But consult with a competent attorney and learn of the many effective weapons legally available to you. Noone should ever plead guilty to that charge without diversion involved.
New law in Tennessee said some crimes have to serve 100% and not get parole now. Does this apply to someone already sentenced before new law ?

It is not retroactive. But charges initiated after its implementation will generate 100% to be served Sentences.
I filed it and want it dropped anyway

Go to the Court Clerk's Office and tell them you want to dismiss it. Do this before the hearing.

You should have called law enforcement. You might be able to file an Action To Recover Personal Property in General Sessions. Use TN terms only, not foreign. Otherwise you will need to file for a Divorce and have to prove grounds.

It can happen. Domestic Assault is a serious crime. Be prepared to make Bond and hire an attorney. You may not want to talk to her again.

Hire an attorney to prepare for a Preliminary Hearing. If Indicted, then you will need the attorney to make Discovery and try it.

If you are not convicted of DA or have any other firearm disabilities, then you can possess firearms. However that charge is probably on your record if not expunged. So you will fail a NCIC. Might want to expunge it.

DA is a very serious crime, worse than some felonies. Hire an attorney. Do not plead guilty under any circumstances except Diversion. 11 mo/29 days, fine and no firearms ever.
