What are the Different Types of Domestic Violence?

What are the Penalties for Domestic Violence?
You could be charged with a misdemeanor or felony depending on the seriousness of the offense. Additionally you may face:
- Jail Time
- Fines
- Community service
- Counseling
- Anger management
- Loss of gun ownership rights
- No contact order from the court
- No contact order that prohibits you from returning to your home
