Can You Go to Jail for Domestic Violence?
A person who is accused of domestic violence may face jail time. Generally, a person will be charged with a violation of California Penal Code section 243(e)(1) or domestic battery. Violation of this code section is charged as a misdemeanor and carries a county jail sentence of up to one year and a fine not to exceed $2,000.
If a person wilfully inflicts corporal injury on a current or former spouse, intimate partner, cohabitant, or co-parent, they may be charged with violations of California Penal Code section 273.5. The offense is considered a felony and carries substantial penalties upon conviction, including state imprisonment for two, three, or four years and a fine of up to $6,000.
What to Do If You Are Falsely Accused of Domestic Violence
If you are falsely accused of domestic violence, you need to consult with a family law attorney immediately. If convicted of these allegations, you could face significant penalties, including a jail or prison sentence. Even accusations may affect your reputation and could negatively impact other family law matters, such as a child custody dispute.

Do You Need a Restraining Order?
Domestic violence is prevalent and frequently underreported. If you have been the victim of domestic abuse, you may need to file a restraining order to protect yourself and your children. A domestic violence restraining order can be filed against a current or former spouse, intimate partner, or certain relatives.
A domestic violence restraining order can help ensure that the aggressor does not contact, harass, threaten, stalk, or harm you. A temporary restraining order can be issued the same day or by the next business day in order to ensure you receive the protection you need.
At Stolar Law Group, we will take immediate action to protect you and your children, as well as provide skilled and persuasive representation in hearings. Your response to domestic violence abuse must be carefully tailored to your unique situation.
