I want to ask about DV case in Denver CO
Hello Mahdi, I'd be happy to help with your query. Could you please specify what information you need regarding a DV (Domestic Violence) case in Denver, Colorado? Are you looking for information about the legal process, potential penalties, or something else?
Yes. I know friend he has DV case on criminal court in Denver. before it was restriction order from district court. his ex asked him for money he gave her $*.* check, when he wanted his money he went to her parking lot, and she recorded him asking her for money. when he left she called police and showed them video. they put arrest warrant against him. he got arrester 4 month after when he got pulled over for traffic volition, he wann't wear of the warrant. and police never contacted him or show him police report.
Given your friend's scenario, they might be facing violation of a restraining order, which could be viewed as separate criminal charges in Colorado. Also, if the video appears threatening, it could be seen as evidence of domestic violence. Here are some key points:
- Violation of a restraining order can lead to misdemeanor or felony charges, depending on the circumstances.
- Recorded evidence can be used in court.
- Arrest warrants can be issued without immediate notice.
- A traffic stop can lead to an arrest if there's a warrant.
Your friend should consult a local attorney.

I see. It sounds like your friend is in a tough spot. Breaching probation terms in Colorado could lead to serious consequences, including possible jail time. If feasible, I would recommend your friend to:
- Get back on track with his probation requirements ASAP
- Contact a legal aid society for budget-friendly legal advice
- Discuss his situation with his probation officer, explaining his financial issues and desire to comply.
he got frustrated because the whole case was false
I understand the frustration, but the legal process must be followed. Encourage your friend to comply with the probation requirements and consult a legal aid society for assistance. Remember, maintaining good communication with his probation officer may also help.
he's good but it's hard for him because they think he's valence but he's not instead his ex she's the bad one
I understand this is a tough situation. However, complying with probation is crucial, even if he feels the case was unfair. He should seek legal help, possibly from a legal aid society, and keep communicating honestly with the probation officer.
