About Domestic Violence Charges
A domestic violence charge generally involves violence against a spouse, partner or family member. The exact charge, and whether it is treated as a misdemeanor or a felony, varies with the facts and is decided by prosecutors and the court. The judge may review bail and issue protective orders that the person must follow after release.
After a Domestic Violence Arrest in Pasadena
Arrests in Pasadena are made by Pasadena Police Department and, in some areas, LA County Sheriff — Temple Station. Depending on the charge and the agency, a person may be held at Men's Central Jail or Twin Towers Correctional Facility. Criminal cases from the area are heard at Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center and Pasadena Courthouse. For a domestic violence charge the first step is to get the inmate booking number and confirm the bail amount with the facility.
How Bail Is Set for Domestic Violence Charges
Most people first see a bail figure taken from a schedule of standard amounts. Later, at a hearing, a judge may keep, raise or lower it. The judge looks at the charge, the person's record and whether the person is likely to return to court.
