Legal Question in Family Law in California

Hi! My daughter is with my ex husband. We are currently seaparated and divorce is in process. He always throw verbal abuses on me. Back in 2005, he was brought to jail because of domestic violence when he was so drunk. But I did not file charges against him because I am a new comer in America and I do not know anybody in California. He always tells me I don't have debt of gratitude that if not because of him, I am not going to be in the States. Is there anyway to reopen his domestic violence case since the truth is he really throw a metal chair on me reason why I had 10 stitches in my head???
