Client had separated from long-term boyfriend of nine years a month previously… but they’re still living in the same house that they own together. They were arguing about what would be done with the house, and boyfriend was holding phone saying “I’ll call 911!” She said “I’ll call for you and reached for the phone and he shoved her. She shoved him back. That’s the alleged battery. Although Vt. action lawful (she reached for his phone) her action was lawful too (he shoved her first). Clear self-defense. State dismissed case. Then attorney Zahra Umansky successfully expunged Client’s arrest record so that she could put this behind her.
