QLD Domestic Violence Order - Have to Go to Court Monday

[jwils294]

My friend in on parole and recently there was a DVO (domestic violence order) in place between me and him which the police put in place not me I didn't want it.

Another thing has happened and I called the police and I claimed he had spat on me, now he is being charged with assault, now thinking about it ive relised that I over reacted I thought he had spat on me but he had spat near me and out of anger I told the police he did.

He has now been in the watch house and has court on Monday. If I go to the court house Monday morning and say I want to drop the charge, will I be able to? Also will something happen to me?

Hi jwils294,

I apologise for the delay in answering your question. How did it turn out in the end? Did you convince the police to drop the charges?

If you are still curious about this question, some other threads on here ask the similar question of whether a victim can request the police to drop charges:
