Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas
I live in texas and my wife and I got into it one night and there was some pushing and shoving. She filed for divorce and also filed assault charges on me. I am currently on bond for the assault and as a conition of bond I am to have no contact with her. We have two kiddos that we are passing back and forth for visitation. I would like clarification as to what personal contact is considerd. Aside from the obvious no calling her,texting, sendig letters would it be considered contact to send her flowers as a gift as long as there were no message attached.
Thank You

There should be something IN WRITING that gives a definition of "contact." Look at the bond papers.
There is no standard definition of "contact." I think sending flowers WOULD be considered "having contact."
In connection with your divorce, you should get some temporary orders in place that set out (specifically) your visitation with the children. I think that would trump any vague "no contact" provision in a bond.
