Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

Assault On A Family Member

I had a warrant for my arrest for

assault on a family member. That

family member being the mother of

my child. My 1st court date is coming

up to be set up with a lawyer. Is

there any way that i can get it so the

warrant stipulations (i cannot have

any contact with my daughters

mother what so ever) can be

dropped or waived so that i can at

least see my child ?
