Re: simple battery /17 male in 11th grade

When you say he was "charged" with a simple battery, I'm assuming you are referring to a proceeding or event outside of school (e.g., a charge by a prosecutor). If this is the case, then it is advisable to hire an attorney so that the attorney can take steps to ensure the 17 year old maintains a clean record.
