Only the DA can drop the charges. You can ask them to drop the charges, but they don't have to simply because that's what you want to happen. The truth is is that the victim in nearly every domestic violence case wants the charges dropped. It's part of the cycle of violence. The DAs know this and, for that reason, they rarely drop the charges simply because that's what the victim wants. I'm not saying that's right or wrong, but that is how domestic violence cases work. Here's some food for thought. You said "I know he would never hurt me or my kids." He already has hurt you. He repeatedly slapped you and busted your lip. That is something that NEVER happens in normal, healthy relationships. EVER. Stop making excuses for him (i.e., he did it because he was drunk). It sounds like you have a bad relationship. If you think otherwise, then you have never been treated well by men. Either break up or get into couples counseling.

Yours was not an antitrust violation, it is the type of felony which, under federal law, precludes you from owning or possessing any firearm. It might be possible, given that there is been more than five years, that you could have your conviction in Michigan set aside. I would need a more details. If you are actually convicted of three felonies then you will not qualify under the current statute. If, on the other hand, there was only a single conviction it may be possible that there is something that can be done. Nor will go to call my office and arrange for counsel.
