I'm having the hearing at Newtown court on 9 December after receiving an AVO with two assault offences. I’ve never been in the court and as I don't have a solicitor I'm scared. What should I do?
My wife walked out the home on 28 July 2014; taking my daughter with her. After that, I was trying to call her asking about them ,but she don't want to come back home,we talk on the phone many times but she was just asking for divorce..on that time she was insisting and threatening to hurt me more and more. She was coming back to home on my work time taking everything she want even my personal things. She was using private number to call me for calling back. She asked me for milk and nappies for the baby, so I gave the stuff to her friend. The day after she went to the police 2nd October for the AVO.
I received an AVO from the police for her and my daughter (17 months old) as a protected person as well, to attend the court on the 13 October. On this date, it was adjourned because the police added new charges (two common assault: domestic violence). They accused me of grabbing the victim's hair from behind and began to slap the victim across the face a number of times with an open palm.the second one is the same in the next day 29th.
Everything written in the AVO or the two offences in not true. I went to Legal Aid for advice but they said we can't do anything for you. So I'm going to Court for the hearing on 9 December without a lawyer. I'm really scared, because I've never been in such cases and I don't know even how to face the them alone with out any legal skills.
I'm newly moved to this country she used me too much, working hard day and night to pay her loan. Now she want to kick me out (I tried with her for mediation of our friends or family but she is didn't accept).
Any advice? I'm looking just for justice for me and my daughter?
