Counter-Complaint for Assault | After Filing an Assault Complaint Against Her Husband, the Client Faced a Counter-Complaint for Assault but Received an Acquittal

This firm's attorney personally conducted the consultation and, while conversing with the client, set out to understand the contents of the case.

The client said that the marital relationship had grown distant due to the husband's lies and other conduct, and that a divorce lawsuit was in progress.

On the day of the incident, the husband returned home after a company dinner, and because the husband tended toward violence when he drank, the client said that, just in case, she had kept her phone's voice recorder on.

As expected, the husband became greatly angry with the client, pushed her, and struck her hand hard, even causing her to drop her phone.

Right after the assault, the husband headed to the room, and when the client followed him in, he pressed against her with the door and blocked her from entering.

The client said that she was so shocked by the fact that she had been assaulted by her husband that she came to receive psychiatric treatment.

However, the client's husband claimed that, in the process of closing the door, the client pushed to open the door and caused his finger to get caught between the door and the door frame.

On this basis, the client's husband filed a counter-complaint for assault, claiming that he had been assaulted by the client.

A counter-complaint refers to a situation in which a suspect or other person who has been the subject of a complaint considers the content of that complaint to be improper and files a complaint against the complainant in return.

An assault counter-complaint means a situation in which a suspect who has been the subject of a complaint on a charge of assault considers the content of that complaint to be improper and files a complaint against the complainant in return on a charge of assault.

The Sentencing Commission has established the following sentencing guidelines for the crime of assault.

The specialist attorney emphasized that the statement of the client's husband was false and, in order to prove this, made the following arguments.

The husband, who filed a counter-complaint for assault against the client, is conducting divorce litigation with the client, so he has a motive to make false statements about the client.

Moreover, the client's husband, only after the client filed a complaint against him for assault, then obtained a medical certificate and filed a counter-complaint for assault against the client, and such circumstances are sufficient to indicate a false statement.

In addition, the client's husband states the injured area differently in the complaint and in the written statement, so, taking all of these circumstances together, the attorney argued that the contents of the husband's complaint against the client were false.
