Domestic violence, a criminal offense, is usually is charged as a misdemeanor. There is usually a presumption of supervised release after a first offense. Cases that include serious injury or repeat offenses will normally lead to harsher penalties. In a family law case, domestic violence is normally alleged by one of the spouses against the other on an ex parte basis. This means that the person accused of domestic violence is not told of the charges against him or her until the court of law issues a protective order.
A protective order often covers actions other than domestic violence or assaultive behavior. Harassment, stalking, intimidation, or other unwanted behavior also can be restrained by the court with further incidents punished as a violation of a domestic violence protective order.
The person affected by the domestic violence protective order may bring the case on for a full hearing within thirty days of the initial application. Often, the court will change the terms of the protective order, or cancel the order, depending on the facts are brought out at the hearing.
