Can ex-wife file DV case after mutual divorce agreement?
I got a mutual divorce six months ago. Now my ex-wife is filing a domestic violence (DV) case against me and my family members. In the mutual divorce agreement, we both agreed not to file any civil or criminal cases against each other in the future. Is this agreement legally valid to prevent future cases?
Even if your divorce agreement says no future cases, a DV case can still be filed if she claims new or ongoing abuse. However, if it is false, your lawyer can show the court about the divorce terms and seek to dismiss the case. Courts usually do not allow misuse of DV laws.
