PROVING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

For the prosecution to convict an individual of domestic violence, the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant emotionally or physically abused an individual with whom the defendant is in a special relationship. The term special relationship refers to the defendant’s wife, girlfriend, former spouse, the parent of his child, a person he is dating, or a person with whom the defendant lives. The term emotional or physical abuse refers to stalking, assault, battery, or any unlawful or offensive contact that the defendant makes with whom he is in a special relationship.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE RESTITUTION

If the defendant is convicted of domestic violence, the court can order the defendant to pay restitution to the victim. Said differently, restitution is paid to the alleged victim to make the victim whole again. Also, the court can order restitution to be paid to the victim if the defendant destroyed the victim’s personal property. For example, if the defendant punched his girlfriend, giving her a black eye, and broke her laptop, the court can order the victim to reimburse the victim for her medical bills, pain, and suffering, and the cost to replace her computer. So, if you have been charged with domestic violence, you should promptly contact an Encino Domestic Violence attorney to represent you and defend you against the alleged victim’s claims.
