How do you prove in court, a false accusation of domestic assualt?

A friend of of mines x-wife accused him of head butting her, while trying to take his son out of her hands, Its a long story, but she lied


she fell on the ground and tried to say he did it..How do you prove in court, a false accusation of domestic assualt?
Accusations such as these can be really hard to explain. If there were no witnesses then it's your friend's word against his ex. Were the police called? If there has never been any domestic abuse previously then he shouldn't have to worry about it.


What he needs to do is to keep a journal of everything that goes wrong and if she does any provoking when he is around her. This journal will do well for him if he ever has to go to court. He should also never go alone to pick up his child and have a friend along with him in case she is being deliberate and spiteful.How do you prove in court, a false accusation of domestic assualt?
My goodness, that is a diffucult question. If she has any kind of marks on her, that will be more convincing than anything, weather he did anything or not. If you don't have any witnesses at all, it could be one's word, against the other. If there has been domestic problems before, than that may have some bearing on the case. I hate to say it, but people will tend to side with the female, because they seem to be more vulnerable. Somehow, for the child's sake, both parents need to come to some kind of agreement, I am talking about balance. If they do not, that child will grow up with some sort of emotional problems. The father and the mother need to put the child's needs first, and not their own. I have experienced that myself, and it will go with them into their adulthood. So please, try to do anything it takes, for the benifit of the child.
Were you there? An eyewitness would be nice, otherwise he's stuck.
Dont get involved with that sitaution-you weren't there
If you were there - there is your proof. If no one was around, character witnesses would be about the only thing she could bring - even then they could not comment on that one incident - but only how they know the guy and his ex-wife.





It's a touchy subject and can get VERY messy. Personally, if you don't want to be part of court trials, child custody hearings, and such for a very long time... It's a good thing to stay out of it - mostly if you were not there to prove her wrong.
You better just stay away from this problem. You could make things worse for your friend or worse, you could get hurt yourself.
