Re: son going to court for domestic violence
A client just asked me the same question today. I advised her that the prosecutor will rely on your desires as to sentencing, assuming he pleads guilty. If you want him to go to jail then they will do that, but normally they just do counselling and suspend a lot of jail time and give him a fine. He will also be precluded from having a gun.
