"My wife is on probation" asked: My wife was arrested a few months ago for dui and possession of a
controlled substance. Recently, she was arrested for domestic violence and now
faces a hearing for VOP. I did not press charges. The Judge ordered her to have no contact with me except by phone, I believe
until the hearing. Is it possible to get the no contact dropped sooner?
Can I write the judge?
FloridaDUIPRO.com answered: you can write the judge and ask for a hearing on the 'no contact'
order. chances are, the judge will set the hearing and you'll have to
attend. you can request that the judge drop the no-contact order then.
he or she may or may not grant that request. also, if you don't testify
against your wife, the state may have a difficult time proving the
domestic violence charge and the VOP. if you are issued a subpoena,
however, you will be required to comply with it.
