It is a crime for any person to intentionally cause you any physical harm, even if that person is a member or former member of your household. It is important that you tell the officer if you, your child, or any other household resident has been injured, or if you feel you are going to be in danger after the officer leaves. If the offender is not present when the officer arrives and the officer believes that family violence occurred, the offender may be arrested for family violence at a later date. Contact your local law enforcement agency or victim services representative. This order must be issued directly to the offender.
Any person charged with an offense has a right to bail and is subject to a speedy release.
