In domestic violence, alleged offenses are committed by the victim’s spouse, a person whose child has been abused, or a person living with the victim. When a victim is married or has an intimate partner, a person similar to the spouse receives domestic violence support from that jurisdiction, a protected adult or young victim, the victim’s family, or any other person targeted by domestic violence law.

The Court Case

During the process, spouses often face criminal charges, protection orders, and separation from their families, which can result in lengthy and complicated court proceedings.
