Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Jersey
Grand Jury
What usually merits a ''no bill'' from grand jury in a domestic violence case with charges that were exagerrated &embellished by the police from an incident?
There were no aparent injuries, no fotos taken, no one was taken to the hospital, no weapons involved, and the police arrived at seperate location (not the scene of the incident). From what I understand, the victim does not want to testify if it does go to grand jury(although she can subpoena'd) because she feels as though the incident was blown out of proportion and she wishes counseling or anger management for the plaintiff. They are not married but are expecting their first child.

If you had a good attorney, he or she can do a lot to try to cause a no bill. I would get one sooner rather than later. Call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss.

Hearsay is permitted in grand jury proceedings. The prosecutor need only have the alledged victim's written statement to obtain an indictment.
