Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

My daughter who has major mental health issues attacked my son and was charged with battery. She bailed out and the jail told my son she has to stay 100yds away. We had no choice but to bring her home knowingly breaking the order. If we caught who will be in trouble?

She will go back to jail because she violated the order. You may be arrested for encouraging and insisting.

You had a choice. You (and your daughter) made the choice to violate the court order. There may be consequences (which is usually back to jail). If you made another mistake to not get a lawyer, there are usually consequences for that as well.
