Redondo Beach Domestic Violence "No File" Lawyer Success # 11
Our client, a female age 34, was charged with three misdemeanors after fighting with her husband and giving him a bloody nose, as well as bruises. Our client had no prior record and was the mother of a three month old boy.
Redondo Beach police recommended that the City Attorney charge our client with violation of Penal Code section 273.5 (“domestic violence”), Penal Code section 243(e)(1) (“battery upon a spouse”), and Penal Code Section 242 (“simple battery”).
The fight at issue was clearly mutual combat, as each spouse was hitting the other and our client simply got the better of her husband, a muscular, six foot, three inch former kick boxer. The fight started over an argument that escalated into physical confrontation.
Our client’s husband called the police, who arrested our client and charged her with domestic violence and two versions of battery.
Our client then hired Greg Hill & Associates. Greg Hill wrote the City Attorney several times, providing her with our client’s version of the facts, as well as that of her husband, a critique of the police report and photographs of our client as a community volunteer. The City Attorney could tell our office was invested in our client, which we were. The City Attorney was also put on notice that the case against our client was going to be dominated by issues of self-defense and mutual combat – and that our client was likeable, good looking, articulate and educated.
One week before the arraignment, the City Attorney announced that she would not file charges against our client.
