I've been Subpoenaed

[Taurus Babe]

A sheriff came to my dor today to serve me!! AND he couldn't tell me what it was about AND the lady at the help line said "Well, I'll see if I can get back to you sometime today". Guess who never called?
AND
It's for a trial; NC vs. my ex! Okay for those of you that know me the break up with this psycho was some of the most horrible months I've been through. Now I have to go face him in court? You'd think that the state would consider my restraining order again him and not make me go to court and have to see his freaking horrible disgusting face...jerk! (maybe this should go in the Vent section)

Why in the world are they subpoenaing me? All I know is that it has something to do with domestic violence (shocker!) but I wonder if it has anything to do with me? Ahhh, I'm sooo freaking out here

[BabyNicole]

Oh man! I'm sorry you have to go through that! You already have an order against him...why would the state want to feed the fire?

[Janet]

Oh my....maybe he's charged in another case and they want you on the opposite side from him. Maybe someone else is trying to do him in????? They just want your testamony to help.... When do you have to go to court?

[Taurus Babe]

Gosh I have no clue what to think of this. Maybe someone else charging him with abuse? But then it would be a personal name vs. timothy bassett not The state vs. him. I know they just want to hear my voice to help prosecute him, but after tons of death threats, and abuse, and already having to be removed by the cops TWICE from my house (to make a long story short...) now they want me to come to the same court house as him...

My mom even had to get a restraining order against him

[Taurus Babe]

I just don't get why the state would be charging him with any kind of domestic abuse...

There have obviously been criminal charges brought on your ex. The state is who prosecutes CRIMINALS. Therefore, it would be the State against your Ex.

[Janet]

Is there anyone you can call to ask what this is about? Could try the courts?

I bet it's a little nerve wrecking for you not knowing isn't it?

It totally is, but mainly cause I NEVER want to see him again. He makes me nevous and is just such an absurd person. You would not believe some of the things he's done...

A Subpoena means you are being called to testify against your ex. The DA obviously has good reason to believe that you have compelling evidence against him...evidence taht will help put him away. You can go talk to the DA and ask them for protection if you testify, if you are that afraid of him. If they need your testimony bad enough, they will give you protection. Just think, your testimony will be helping put away this man so he cannot hurt any other women. Wouldn't hate for another woman to go through what you, and obviously other women, have been through? Go talk to the DA about protection, and then testify against that Bast**** so he can't do this to anyone else.
