Court Update and Reflection
Court Update and Reflection
First I'd like to apologize to anyone I snapped at over my last thread via the replies or through PM. I let my anxiety and emotions overcome me leading up to my situation and the feeling of the unknown in front me.
So I'm not in jail obviously as I type this. I was offered a deal by the DA. Basically the felony is dropped to a misdemeanor DV and I have to take DV classes for 6 months, pay a fine, community service and stay out of trouble. The other option was to take a continuance of about 4 weeks and a warrant for a material witness wouldve been summonsed against my wife. I took the offer for many reasons. 1) I don't want her to have to deal with this warrant s*it over her head. 2) I want this behind us 3) It's my fault so I took it and will deal with it on my own 4)It was the right thing to do.
My last case hopefully forever. I only breakout in handcuffs and judges when I drink. Never happens otherwise.
Thanks for everyones support.

I forgot to mention after I complete the classes and all of the other requirements it gets dropped again to Simple Battery. Thats a long way from a felony and facing 3 to 5 years in prison and my wife doesnt have to worry about a warrant. I'm really happy about the fact that she doesn't!

I'm glad to hear all this Getit!!!
Thanks for coming back and letting us know how it went.
You are not alone. I assaulted my husband while drunk. I wanted to put this out there too. None of us here is free of sin and none of us is here to judge.
I really hope to see you around posting and working your plan.
I am proud of you for owning up to it and facing it head on.
We are your SR family and we want to help you succeed!
