Plea Bargain a Class One Misdemeanor
I was charged with assault on family member. My wife and I had an argument and I through a plastic bottle (not to hit her) to stop the argument. The bottle hit her hand and caused a cut to her finger, 3 stitches. I was arrested and a court date scheduled for next month.
How long is the anger management course?
Does anger management mean to be on active probation?
Can I leave the country if to be found guilty and put on probation?
What are my chances of getting the case dropped?
I do not have any criminal record.
Please help.
Thanks,
John
Re: Plea Bargain a Class One Misdemeanor
Not sure what state you in but in GA, anger management can be anywhere from 6 weeks to a year. In your case I would guess 6-24 weeks. It really all depends on everything. We do not know the facts of your case. Talk to a lawyer and see what they say. You may be able to do a pre-trial thing where u take classes and then everything gets dismissed if you complete the classes.

I am in VA. I work for the government and being assigned overseas for two years do you think the probation office would allow me to leave the country. If I do not go overseas the chances are very good I will lose my job.
Thanks
