If you've been charged with this offense, it's crucial to understand that different types of battery carry different penalties. While misdemeanors carry lighter offenses, felony battery usually results in at least a year of jail time.

This article will help you determine the seriousness of the charge you're facing, so keep reading to learn more.

According to the Indiana Code, a person commits criminal battery when they intentionally touch a person or place bodily fluids or waste on them "in a rude, insolent, or angry manner."

This charge starts as a Class B misdemeanor but increases according to the circumstances and damage to the other person. For example, if the offense caused bodily injury to another person, the charge will rise to a Class A misdemeanor.

On New Year's Eve, Dana White and his wife engaged in a physical altercation that stunned spectators in a busy Cabo San Lucas nightclub. Dana regrettably blames alcohol for slapping his wife.

The 26-year-married UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) boss and Anne White were having a good time on Saturday night with pals at El Squid Roe, a famous party spot in Mexico, but things changed not long after they all rang in 2023 at midnight.

When Dana leaned over to speak to Anne while they were in a VIP section above the dance floor, she smacked him across the face. Dana hit her back in the face right away. Friends then intervened and pulled them apart, all in full view of the customers below. Dana hit her back in the face right away. Someone captured the altercation with his wife on video. Did Dana hit in self defense?

Probable Cause Affidavits in Indiana: What You Need to Know  If you've been charged with a crime in Indiana, you may have come across the term "probable cause affidavit." But what is a probable cause affidavit? In this blog post, we'll explain what a probable cause affidavit is and how it can impact your case.  In Indiana, a probable cause affidavit is a document that is filed by the state to provide notice to the court of the charges against you. 

The affidavit must be based on sworn testimony or an oath, and it must set forth the facts that establish probable cause for your arrest.  If the state files a probable cause affidavit in your case, it does not mean that you have been convicted of a crime. Rather, it means that the state has presented evidence to the court that suggests that you have committed a crime. The court will then decide whether there is enough evidence to proceed with your case.   

If you have been charged with a crime in Indiana, it is important to speak with an experienced criminal defense attorney who can review the probable cause affidavit and help you understand your options.   Conclusion:  A probable cause affidavit is a document that is filed by the state to provide notice to the court of the charges against you. If the state files a probable cause affidavit in your case, it does not mean that you have been convicted of a crime. Speak with an experienced criminal defense attorney if you have been charged with a crime in Indiana.

Parents of volleyball players from Pike High School are upset, angry, and disappointed by what they perceive to be racist taunting gestures made by an opponent during a match on Saturday.

In the two days following the game versus New Palestine, a number of Pike parents voiced their disgust with the situation on social media and in interviews. Kendra Champion-McAloon, the athletic director at Pike, stated on Monday that she had a meeting with Troy Inman, the school's principal, to go through the findings of an internal inquiry.

Domestic Battery, Hiring, Juneteenth, and Independence Day!

This issue has an article about what is domestic battery. In the last issue, we had an article about abortion. Now the United States Supreme Court has taken away a woman's constitutional right to medical privacy. Not much to say about that other than I totally disagree with that decision.

We are still growing and urgently hiring paralegals, a case manager, and an intake specialist. If you know someone that is interested, please ask them to apply by visiting clicking here.
