Permanent Restraining Order Denied

Mr. Black’s client was involved in a family dispute in Denver which resulted in a misdemeanor charge and a civil restraining order against his client. Mr. Black was able to show the prosecutor that the complaining party was the aggressor and had the criminal charge dismissed 5 months ago. Mr. Black conducted a contested hearing this week for the restraining order and was able to provide evidence of the complaining party’s inconsistent statements. The court did not find credible evidence that Mr. Black’s client caused any harm to the complainant and that it was not likely that there would be any future harm. The court dismissed the restraining order.
