On September 28, 2021, the Law Office of Matthew W. Peterson successfully facilitated the release of a client held on dangerousness hearings due to domestic violence allegations during a bail hearing at Essex County Superior Court in Salem.
The client faced charges of assaulting his wife while visiting Massachusetts. Initially, the judge at Lawrence District Court determined that the client posed a danger to the public following a 58A hearing, leading to his detention.
However, the skilled legal team at Matthew W. Peterson’s office promptly appealed this decision to the Superior Court. During the subsequent hearing, the judge recognized the circumstances and granted our client’s release under specific conditions after several days of incarceration.
While our client should never have been detained initially, this outcome was a significant relief.
