    You won't go to jail. Just remember, she shouldn't have started something. You should talk too a police officer if you want to know what will happen.

  • She filed Charges? Did you receive any kind of legal document?

    If not, there is nothing to worry about.

    If you received a legal document from the law or from a lawyer, Than I suggest you get a lawyer.

    I don't think saying something(such as a threat) constitutes grounds for incarceration. But if you physically do something. That is a different story.

    She probably in basic terms tried to get a restraining order. in spite of the incontrovertible fact that - whilst that comes by way of, call for which you meet her in court and argue it. you do no longer could desire to settle for a restraining order. by using fact the restraining order would be against you, then you definately're the "defendant" and you'd be able to question despite witnesses you call - and you'd be able to call her as a witness. Then ask her in case you your self weren't threatened... Make no admittance of incorrect doing your self - basically be silent on that question.

    Pot and kettle occurs.

    A counter would definitely be in order. It is her threatening home invasion and you merely advising that you will exercise your right to self-defense. Get some legal advice - do you have a community law centre in your town?

    Never make a threat. Why would you want to give an enemy a heads up of your intentions.

    Don't drop the soap!

    That's not really a threat. You said you would defend your house if he came to attack you. She would actually have to have him commit a crime by coming to hurt you for your threat to play out. Is she admitting she is going to commit a crime?

    She threatened you.....you threatened her boy friend with self defense......if anyone is in trouble SHE is.....

    But personally I think it is a wash.....even even.... you only told her you were prepared to defend yourself......you did not threaten anyone
