Possible Outcome For a First Time Offender With a Misdemeanor Class A?

In Texas, the State presses the charge, not the original complainant. Once it is filed, in most counties, the D.A. will not dismiss on the request of the complainant (States witness). An assault with family violence is a serious charge the carries lifetime disabilities and if there is a finding of guilt or a probation of any kind it will stay with you till you die.    There are several ways to avoid a conviction in many cases and you should investigate with your lawyer to find the best answer. Some of the problems that are created by a plea to a family violence offense are that you can never own or carry or use a gun and the fact that you have had the case will make even the lowest assault offense into a serious one that will be prosecuted vigorously. There are other effects that are bad.  I hope this helps. Call to let me know if you need legal help in the Dallas-Tarrant-Collin or Denton area.

I have a class b misdemeanor chart of theft.am I eligible to be hired as a teacher in Plano texas independent school district.

Hard "maybe." Although it is not a conviction, you plead guilty when you were placed on deferrwd adjudication. In the future you can have this offense sealed, it will remain visible to state agencies, like the TX State Board of Educators, and school districts. You should anticipate you will be required to disclose it, and may have additional scrutiny when applying for teaching positions. Although not a prohibition, a misdemeanor theft, even though you are not convicted, will create hurdles if you want to pursue a career as a teacher.

A civil assault case can be filed. If you required medical help and have health problems, you can claim damages. Your problem will be proving the amount of money damages and collecting any judgment you get. Unless the provable damages are large you can file in the Justice Court without an attorney.
