Charged with Battery on a Child / Child Abuse
Domestic Violence
Male Client in Long Beach Courthouse, January 2018.
Our client was charged with battery on a child and child abuse in violation of Penal Code section 242 and Penal Code section 273.5. It was alleged that he had slapped the juvenile. The juvenile victim never stated that our client slapped him. There was no corroborative evidence to establish the charges. We were able to cast doubt on the allegations and show there was no reliable evidence to support the charges.
