The Form is an application for Relief of Abuse and is worded:Applicant, Respondant so i would assume that is a civil matter.  Perhaps i am wrong in my assumption?  It was submitted Ex Parte thus the hearing scheduled for the 30th..

I beleive the Affidavit submitted with the DV restraining order trumped up the *allegations* against me and they deviate from the original report taken.  

I only know what the report said by what the police told me and they were vague at best.

1. Would it be a good idea to subpoena the police report so i can be positive that the statements on the report and affidavit deviate rather then assume they do by word of mouth?  


2.  If said statements deviate will they affect the outcome of the hearing?

I really appreciate the time you are spending with me discussing this.  Thank you very much.

Just a couple more quick questions..

1.  If the charges are dismissed will they have any bearing on the custody/visitation issues?

2.  Is agreeing to a pretrial rehabilitation program that results in the charges being dismissed an admission of guilt and would it have any bearing on question #1?

I have a Relief From abuse- Restraining Order hearing on 30-JUN-06 after my XGF had me arrested for restraining her from biting me.  I have never been in a situation like this before as this is my first brush with the law for anything.  

We have 2 children, both boys, ages 3 Years and 11 months.  In the affidavit for the RO she claimed i punched her 6 times and messed her jaw up, and i'm not sure what she said in the police report but i think it was 2-3 or 3-4.  

I have a couple of questions about what to expect at this hearing.  We all reside in the state of Connecticut and the case will be heard in a Connecticut court.

1. Will this pending DV case have a severly negative impact on my chances for visitation with my sons seeing as though i have no prior criminal record?

2. Am i allowed access to the police report that was filed against me and if so can it be used to prove inconsistencies on the affidavit and the report when it was filed?

3. Would filing a petition for Custody/visitation before the hearing improve my chances of getting any type of custody/visitation rights with my boys?

Thanks for you time.

I'll start with the basic facts.  My EXGF of 5 1/2 years and i split up in Sep 05.  I had found out she was with another guy and 2 or 3 days after we split this guy moved in with her.  We have 2 children together.  One is nearly 3 and the other is 10 months.  In APR 06 she called me one night and told me she had struck the other party and went after him with a knife.  I picked her and the children up and broght them back to my mothers place where I had been staying and apparently alchol was involed in the incident.  Make a long story short she thought it would be a good idea to work things out with me and her.  Having a great love for my children i agreed and here i am sitting now back at my mothers place with a domestic violence case against me.  She had me arrested for restraining her to avoid her hitting me.  Yesterday she informed me that she was going to seek sole custody of our children and that i wasn't going to see them until everything was decided in court.  I really love my children and i really want to see them.  She never kept them away from me the first time we split up so i can't understand why she would keep them away from me now.  I really want to see my kids and i don't want to take them away from her.  I just want to be a part of their life.  What options do i have for seeing my children?  do i need to go file a petition for visitation/custody?  Will this pending DV case against me hurt my chances of seeing my kids?
