Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon
A classy hardworking client had been arrested and charged with Assault and Battery & Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon. The assault and battery are a misdemeanor charge and the Assault with a Dangerous Weapon a felony. The police alleges that father and son were wrestling and the wrestling when father became aggressive resulting in underage son injuring the left side of his face. Mother was distressed about the incident and applied for and received a restraining order. The court at client’s arraignment received a no-contact order against father so he could not go home or contact his family. Attorney Barabino sought to reconcile the family without delay and eventually was able to have a motion allowed to remove the no-contact order. At that hearing, the District Attorney was able to interview mother who explained it was an accident and in the end the District Attorney agreed to place it on for a trial viability date. Today, at that date, a brief interview with all the parties resulted in a withdrawal of all the charges. The case is now dismissed and will have no challenges to include immigration and naturalized which was a concern due to his immigration status.
RESULT: No Immigrations Consequences for Felony and Misdemeanor Charge.
