Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
Ok me and my kids father got into a domestic dispute and there was an activate restraining order. At the time I made the pressed charges I was really upset but now I don't want to proceed with them, But he has a hearing coming up and if I don't show up will there be a possibility they will throw the case out if they don't find reasonable cause for a felony?

If you are the only witness and you don't show up that could cause the judge to either continue the case or dimiss it. The prosecution could subpoena you to appear in which case you would have to appear or be in contempt.
