WHAT IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE?
Domestic violence
is abuse between family members or related persons. Domestic violence may
come in many forms: actual physical abuse, threats of physical abuse, emotional
abuse, threatening telephone calls, disturbances at a place of employment,
stalking, and other forms of dominance and control. Domestic violence is
distinguished from other kinds of abuse because of the special relationship
between the persons. Domestic violence cases may be treated differently
than cases of civil harassment because of the interpersonal relationships
involved. At least one of the following relationship tests typically must
be met in order to qualify a matter as a domestic violence case:
- the parties
are married now or were formerly married to one another
- the parties
are related by blood, marriage or adoption
- the parties
are currently or were formerly living together
- the parties
have now or used to have a dating or engagement relationship
- the parties
have a minor child in common
