Is it illegal for another adult to ask me for nude pic of a minor? is it illegal for him to ask me to post them online if i did?

Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Kenneth G. Wincorn & Associates, P.C.
For a case to be filed there must be proof of a violation of the law. When there is an allegation that someone has posted photographs of minors on the internet it will be required that the photos exist or existed. Since all postings can be recovered even if deleted, you should be safe from prosecution if no postings were made and none were received on your computer. You may have a civil case against the person making the false statements so see a civil lawyer about the possibility of taking legal action.

What should I expect on trial for my 3rd Domestic assault?

In GA, until January of 2014, the biggest roadblock you will probably face is that District Attorney will be able to introduce your prior convictions for Domestic Violence into evidence against you. In a trial, if the jury is wavering, prior convictions can sometimes push them in the wrong direction. Also, the ADA will try to make your girlfriend seem like she is changing her story to protect you, and therefore the jury shouldn't believe her testimony, if it conflicts too much with what she said that night. If you were pushing each other at the same time, technically a battery was committed by both parties because battery is any offensive touching not just hitting or punching of some sort. I once had a client charged with simple battery because she spit on someone. However, there are obviously a lot of things and facts about your case that I am not aware of, and I'm sure your attorney would not have told you that you have a good chance of beating it unless he/she wasn't convinced. Also, I'm not sure which state you are in and the rules about the ADA being able to introduce your priors into evidence may be different where you live. If so, then this will make a big difference.
