Domestic Violence Rochester Hills
52-3 District Court DV Lawyer

During a domestic violence trial in Michigan, the prosecutor will have the alleged victim testify about your relationship with the alleged victim, and what has happened since the incident.  In many cases, the alleged victim will now be telling another story, and the prosecutor will highlight the reasons and motivations to a jury.  Here are some sample questions you might see during a DV trial in Michigan.   

- Were you reluctant to testify today?
- Why? Are you comfortable with the court process?
- Has he threatened or intimidated you in any way?
- Has his family or friends threatened or intimidated you?
- Did he tell you what to say today
- Did you tell him what you were going to say today?
- Do you understand it is the Prosecutor's office, not you, that is prosecuting Defendant?
- Do you understand that you cannot make the decision to drop charges against Defendant when he has violated the Penal Code?
- Do you understand why?
- Are you nervous because he is sitting in this courtroom so close to you while you testify?
- Are you anxious that if you say the wrong thing, he might get mad at you when you get home tonight?
- Are you afraid of him now?
- Were you afraid of him then?
- Do you still love him?
- Want him to help raise the kids with you?
- You do want him to know you still love him, right?
- You don't want anything bad to happen to him?
- You do want him to stop hurting you?
- Do you want him to take responsibility for his actions?
