My question involves criminal law for the state of: Alabama
The question that I have is can a person be charged with domestic violence if their spouse or significant other didn't file a complaint and what is the punishment for failure to obey directions of a police officer?
The reason for my question is because my boyfriend and I got into an argument so I called the police to make him leave my home, but shortly before the police arrived he broke the window out of my front door and let himself in. When the police arrived they came into my house with the gun drawn and my boyfriend ran because he thought the officer was going to shoot him. I did not sign a warrant on him I just simply wanted them to make him leave. When the police looked at me he saw that I two scratches on me and he took it upon himself to file charges because I was 6 months pregnant at the time. He plead guilty to the failure to obey charge and not guilty to domestic violence. Is he facing jail time on either of these charges.
