    Default Re: Domestic Violence

    If you are issue a subpoena you must attend court. Fsikure can result in being jailed (and just for those thInking I’m being excessive I met a kid that was in jail for his exact same thing. )

    In Michigan the state takes over the DV case, you don’t have a say over whether or not it will be prosecuted because it is a crime against The People Of Michigan. What I have seen work in some counties like Washtenaw, is the prosecutor will sometimes drop the case if the victim does not show up to the preliminary hearing. Otherwise if you are summoned to a hearing, it is technically contempt of court not to show up, which could be prosecuted... but I’ve never seen that happen in a DV case
    i have.

    and it was in Michigan strangely enough
