Like a lot of cases, this can go down two paths. In some cases, a domestic violence charge can result in an early dismissal. For example, if the other party doesn’t want to move forward with the case, doesn’t appear in court or if there is a quick plea that is taken. In Michigan once you are charged with domestic violence, the criminal charges will not simply go away if the other party decides to drop the charges. Only the prosecuting attorney has the authority to drop the charges against you.
On the other hand, in most cases involving domestic violence, it is usually a “he said she said” situation. There is usually no agreement on what the facts are, and the only way to resolve facts in a case is to go to trial. The jury will then decide the facts during trial.
