Congratulations to David Carter on a Domestic Violence Harassment Trial Win!

Mr. Carter’s client was accused of Harassment – intentionally causing offensive physical contact.  Since the alleged victim was his wife, it was processed by the court as an act of domestic violence.  Mr. Carter’s client was accused of turning his wife’s face so that she would to face him during an argument.  If convicted Mr. Carter’s client faced up to six months of jail.  At trial, Mr. Carter proved that his client was saying ‘talk with me’ when he touched his wife and that the intent of turning her face was to get his wife to face him rather than to turn away.  Thus, his intention was not to ‘offend or annoy.’  Mr. Carter’s client was accordingly found Not Guilty!
