Domestic violence restraining orders can hurt your future and prevent you from seeing your loved ones or coming home. California Family Code Section 6203 prohibits family or domestic violence. Examples of domestic violence between cohabitating, dating, married, or formerly married individuals includes the following:

Stalking
Physical violence
Verbal abuse
Social abuse
Sexual abuse
Threats

Conviction on domestic violence charges could lead to serious penalties. If convicted of a misdemeanor, consequences may include mandatory counseling, community service, physical labor, expensive fines, and / or up to one year in county jail. If you are convicted of a felony, you could face counseling, community service, physical labor, fines, and / or up to four years in state prison.

Long Term Consequences Of A Domestic Violence Conviction

A domestic violence conviction can cause other long-lasting repercussions as well, including a criminal record and the possibility of losing your professional license or job certification. You could even face an expensive lawsuit from the alleged victim. If you are not a citizen of the United States, you may be deported or denied citizenship or a visa extension. You may also lose your Second Amendment right to own a gun - even if your job requires you to carry one.
