    Default Re: Battery Charges

    The charges he faces are the charges leveled against him. if he was charged with battery, then that is the crime he was charged with.

    What penalty he faces depends on the laws of your unnamed state, specific charge (code section(s)), and any past criminal history he has. he likely faces the potential for jail or prison time.

    He needs to hire an attorney, and you need only tell the truth in court.

    Default Re: Battery Charges

    Was this his first charge on his record. Who was listed as the victim in the case was it you. If it was you, you or victim need to send a letter to the State attorney office attesting to his character and requesting that the State drops charges on him. Similar thing happene to me with my mother. She sent in letter and because I had no prior the procescuter never filed the case
    Good Luck let me now how it turns out.
