Our Niece in another state was living with her boyfriend and other roomates. He became very intoxicated at a party, everyone left and she was left there, he beat her up....she is disabled and has pre-existing heart/ vascular problems, has very limited income. This man apparently a history of intoxicated bad behavior and I guess, may have a previous record...he spent the night in jail, she went to the hospital and is facing major medical bills. She has not yet signed the order to raise the charges from Assult and Battery (domestic) to Aggravated A & B, as I guess they wanted to "up" the charges...she has not sign that yet. My question is that there is a No-Contact order in effect. He has tried to get in touch with her and the concern is that even though she's moved, etc., can she get in trouble if she speaks or texts with him? She is physically challenged (and emotional from this ordeal) & is on limited disability income and has no money to ask about these things. I worry he may try to get her to contact him to use in his case to get his charges reduced.
