Defending Against Domestic Violence Charges in Family Court or in Orders of Protection 

I was the male victim of dv, From my son's mother. But she made false allegations in family court that she was the victim of DV, from me. Legally, in a civil matter like child custody, you have to prove your case by a "preponderance of the evidence". But I proactively chose to prove my case "beyond a reasonable doubt", as you would in a criminal case. I did that because there was too much at stake, specifically my son's future. I didn't want him raised by violent mother. And I didn't want to leave his future to the whims of a biased judge. And that's how I won primary custody after a 3 year battle. I testified for 28 hours, in order to completely undermine any stereotype the court could have that by default the mother must be the victim and the father must be the perpetrator. Hope that helps all of you dads that are falsely accused.

How about these law makers making law that after separation there is a minimum eligible time for each parent to connect with children, this problem will end. The truth is these rules really sucks and some people making money out of other peoples problems. Really disgusting.

question? how is it that family court can force a restraining order against a family where their was no domestic violence in the case? situation: teenage son was reported a runn away, did not want to return home to be with girl friend, maid false accusations to police, cps was call by police once teenage son was located at girlfriends home, in court mothers court appointed attorney advise mother "if you do not agree to restraining order the court will look at you as if you continue and fail to protect your kids". father was given restraining order and forced out of home, children were placed with family, and mom was left at home alone.

I was falsely accused of domestic violence 2 1/2 years ago, and a TPO court order was put on me, and my bm and her mother sabotage me to take my child for financial gain. My lawyer called me today and said the case has been dismissed. I need to speak with someone on filing defamation of character for falsifying information to the police.

You know it's unfair because my ex-wife and when I went to report it I got laughed at by the police

Criminal allegations are supposed to be heard in criminal court. The problem with Family “law” is 1. They allow private attorneys to prosecute crimes (unfair). 2. PERJURY is not punished. Changing those 2 small and common sense points would end EVERYONES nightmare AND put all the scum bag Family “law” attorneys OUT OF BUSINESS

It feels like my case is a little tricky and confusing. I file to enforce custody back in February. Last time I seen my kids was march. Now 2/3 months later she claiming I abused my kids with pictures I never seen. And Twisting my words from discipline. To abuse. She file two emergency hearing and they both got denied. But now she got cps and the Detectives involved. This is crazy. How far somebody would go to destroy somebody life. Now it’s like I’m just waiting to see if the da will file charges all for a lie from march. And just found out on mediation that she’s been calling the The detective almost every other week. Trying to get me charged.

They wouldn't even take a report

My daughter's mom has filed for emergency protection as a last card to pull in our custody battle, to cover up for not following the visitation order in our trial we had, where she was trying to relocate to New York city from Kentucky. She wouldn't let me pick my daughter up on the designated time, I tell her that I'm not leaving until she lets my daughter come with me and she is disobeying the judge's orders, and she calls the police and says I'm harassing her and I leave when they pull up and tell me to leave. The very next day was also my visitation day so I show up and I call the police myself and have them meet me out there. They gave me a case number, tell me that I should have gotten a hold of a sheriff's deputy who couldn't enforce those orders, and then I leave. He supposedly goes up and talks to my daughter's mom telling her she's violating the order, and I'm sure she's telling him that I'm harassing her then as well. The very next day she falls in emergency protective order. It's devestating because all I've ever wanted to do is be involved in my daughter's life, and she's doing everything she can do to be able to leave and go to new York. I'm hoping things go well, and I'm the most calm individual I've ever known personally, and I just hate that this is happening.

if you have an investigation and it's sent to the prosecutor and it's determined that corroboration is not likely to be determined and proven by the jury. if that prosecutor that determined that, is now a judge and you actually get that same judge that once was a prosecutor, is that a conflict of interest?

Is it common for orders of protection to be granted when the allegation is based on the petitioner “feeling threatened” or “afraid?” This is based on a parenting decision to take away a child’s privilege to drive a car because he was not doing his homework. But the child was upset and so the petitioner said there was a fear of harm.

Have had my ex gf put a false dvro on me just because i broke up with her. Her statements have 3-4 different versions. Written and u der oath in family court. Very bad terrible claims. She forged and faked 2 proofs of service and multiple forgeries of my name in state documents. Hired a professional handwriting expert showing everything is in her handwriting and including using a copy machine and tracing my name. When this is shown in front of a judge, does the judge more than frown on this and will they ask for charges to be pressed by the local DA for perjury and submitting fraudulent evidence to the court? This is very real.

It's insane how orders of protection can be abused by people to get some sort of gain from it. This is one thing that makes men misogynistic fr. Why date women and have children with them if they suddenly turn on you and use an order of protection to get custody of the child and force you out of their life? Ik with me personally i've had many bad experiences with women that made me really resent them in my teen years and i've struggled for a long time over that. Even now it's hard for me to trust women. It also doesn't help that my mother was the first woman to ever do something wrong to me. She lied to me, stole from me, left me with my grandfather so she could do drugs, and came in and out of my life constantly. Over the years i repressed that and it came out in high school when people who happened to be women didn't want anything to do with me and i ended up getting angry and even made threats at times which got me in trouble in school. Idk how i didn't get arrested or anything but it seems to be luck ig. Today though i've overcame most of those issues and i have more empathy for others as a result. Just because a few women did me wrong in some way doesn't mean all women will.

1. spouse got a restraining order civil 2. Charged with Domestic Violence 3. Divorce paperwork filed. 4. DV charges dropped. 5. Protection order dropped 6. Civil restraining order maintained. 7. Family court spouse maintains sexual and domestic violence and risk to infant. 8. All DV charges dropped by spouse maintains DV and sexual risk of harm of infant. 9. I hope to win family court due to criminal court dropping DV though family court still says DV

How can I help help getting my children back

What if you are in Idaho. How can you be sure to find an attorney that will fight for you. My brother was just served a restraining order and had his kids taken from him, under false allegations.

Hello I'm 35 male. And was issued a order of protection based on he said she said case. My ex girlfriend found out she was pregnant with our 3rd child right after the order was granted. A couple months later she texted me and apologized for lying and exaggerating to get the order of protection and that she was just scared to leave and take off with our kids. The order of protection judge granted me unsupervised visits for 8hrs on Sundays until we got a case in family court. Can those texts messages I have from my ex girlfriend saying that she lied and exaggerated to get the order of protection can they be used by me in my family law case?

I was falsely accused of abuse. Criminal charges were rejected by the DA. She started to stalk my house, and when she saw I had “company “ aka moving on, 3 days later she filed a restraining order. How much does her stalking my house help with my defense?

Can a CPO be granted if the petitioner is claiming " abuse and threats" the initiator in more than half of the altercations. How does a judge decide?

This was great Tim sounds like a fucking rockstar

Thanks for this! I have a question. Does it matter if the petitioner of a temporary Injunction for protection against domestic violence with minor child show up for the hearing? What will happen if the petitioner doesn't show up?

I need help

If My Daughters Mother Issued A Temporary Order Of Protection Against Me And Put My Daughters Names On The Order. It She's Able To Still Contact Me So My Daughters Can Talk To Me?

And after reading these comments, this is the reason the Judge did not give me a restraining order, because of all these liars falling false claims!

What do I do

surviving false allegations

My daughter ex husband falsely accused my daughter of abusing my granddaughter and the judge order him to return my granddaughter to my daughter immediately. It been a week after and my granddaughter father have not returned my granddaughter to my daughter and he’s getting away with it.

The truth is, men abuse women a lot more than vise versa. Majority of the time when a woman/mother has the courage to come to court and state she was abused, she gets completely discredited and the abuser is allowed and enabled by the family court to continue abusing. Court abuse is very real and many innocent children have been killed by the controlling abusive fathers. There needs to be more protection for DV victims and their children!!!!
