Domestic Violence Charges in Arizona
These charges typically involve assault, disorderly conduct, criminal damage, trespassing, and the violation of protective orders. What makes domestic violence allegations unique from other criminal defense cases involving the same charges is the nature of the relationship between the alleged victim and the defendant.
According to Arizona law, the crimes noted above can be elevated to domestic violence in the following circumstances:
- The involved parties are married, or were previously married.
- The involved parties are involved in, or were previously involved in, a romantic or sexual relationship.
- The involved parties live together or had previously lived together. This includes non-romantic relationships, from familial connections to platonic roommates.
- The involved parties have a child in common or are expecting a child.
- The involved parties are related by blood, by marriage, or by other legal mechanisms, such as adoption.
