Jul 29, 2015OUTCOME: Court denies request for a permanent restraining order and dismisses case.
Clients wife filed for Domestic violence restraining order. At the hearing, she admitted that on two prior occasions she had lied to authorities about being assaulted by my client. On one of those oc ... casions she contacted police and the prosecutor and admitted this and no charges were filed. In the other instance she admitted that she was the one who hit my client and that he did not hit her. She also admitted that she had struck herself in the head with a ceramic coffee cup in April in order to create a situation where she would falsely claim that my client struck her. She did not call the police because a witness saw her do this. She also admitted that she had previously threatened my clients custodial rights to his children stating I know how to do this so that you'l never see your kids again. The pictures of her alleged injuries did not match the description she gave of her injuries in her affidavit for her TRO. At the conclusion of her cross examination, the judge told her he didn't believe a thing she said.
