Charges of Domestic Assault with a Weapon x 2 and Utter Threat x 2 withdrawn after extensive pre-trials with the Crown Attorney Newmarket. M.M. was dating a lady about 25 years younger for about six months. The two had a child together and during the course of living together allegations of domestic violence were made by the complainant. Joseph Neuberger was retained as defence counsel. Joseph Neuberger reviewed the disclosure, had all statements transcribed and then attended the home to view the scene. The description of the alleged assault with a weapon was not plausible given the layout of the room the complainant alleged the two assaults took place. Mr. Neuberger photographed the room and hallway. Then an interview was conducted of the client’s mother how was home during the incident. Joseph Neuberger turned over the defence evidence to the Crown and conducted a number of pre-trials. In the interim, Mr. Neuberger had the client complete an anger management program privately and furnished the Crown with a copy of the report. After further discussions with the Crown, an agreement was reached to withdraw all charges in favour of the client signing a peace bond.
