I was arrested on Tuesday, 4/24/2013 for domestic violence. My partner was screaming at me, I slapped him, he got on top of me and held me down with his body so I bit him to get him off of me. Since I didn't have any signs of harm on my body from him, I was arrested. I bailed myself out and now I have no clue what to do or expect. My partner wants to have the charges dropped. How do we do this? I have a court date on Tuesday 5/7/2013. I'm scared and confused. I have never been arrested before or been reported for having a violent or angry personality. Other people are telling me my partner can write a letter to the D.A. or show up in court with me on the 7th and other people are telling me not to him attend court with me. I have also been told that I wont have a public defender until after my 1st court date. What should I expect when I get to court? What do I do? What do we do? Thanks for listening.
