After your 24-hour automatic no-bond lockup, you will find that your rights have changed. You will almost certainly be under a temporary restraining order (TRO) that may prevent you from going home to retrieve your belongings (if your accuser lives with you). It may keep you from seeing your children.
If convicted of a domestic violence charge, you will lose more rights. You won't be able to hunt or carry a gun. Police officers, armed security guards and active duty military personnel who depend on the ability to carry a gun to do their jobs may face unemployment or discharge.
A conviction for domestic violence can have far-reaching consequences beyond the criminal penalties. A conviction may label you as an abuser in the eyes of your community. It can make it difficult or impossible for you to get a fair custody and visitation agreement if you are involved in a divorce.
