This was the incident happened last weekend. My wife and I had an argument followed by physical assaults (couple of slaps on the back). She, out of anger, called 000 and said she is being hit. Police came after a while and arrested me and put a charge "Common Assault-T2". They issues ex-parte AVO against me.
Well, we are married for over 4 years now with one child about 2 years. We are happy family with usual arguments at times but it has never went this far. My wife now regrets of her making a call on 000, which she did in anger and impatience.
Now, can someone from you guide me what could happen in the court in 2 weeks time? We are single income family (I am earning member) and have mortgage upon us. We can't really tolerate any big penalties or jail term at all. If that happens, it would be disaster and would destroy the family and especially 2 year old kid's life.
How can we survive this? I heard someone saying that if you are sorry about this,n
