Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
my husband hasn't been charged for aggravated assault and domestic battery, but there is still a chance he could get charged. This is his first offense...He is already getting counseling, going to a mental health therapist, and going to anger management classes. My question is how likely is he to get charged? In Florida the state of attorney has the right to press charges even if the victim doesn't. With those facts what do you think will happen?

Unfortunately, your question can not properly be answered on this forum. You really need to sit down and talk with an attorney and give more details. The state attorney will press charges if they feel they have enough evidence to prosecute, not whether the victim wants to prosecute. Talking to an attorney will shed light on what is likely to happen. I practice in Pinellas county so feel free to give me a call at 727-528-1859.
