导读
在新南威尔士州，家庭暴力犯罪的处理方式与其他类型的刑事案件不同。他们在法庭上遵循不同的程序，在逮捕之后，法庭通知被告在某地提出辩护，并且根据是否是有罪或无罪的请求，设定判决或审判的日期。如果首次提出认罪，则可获得25％的量刑折扣。
注意
除非有特殊申请，否则除此之外没有其他出庭要求。设置此程序的原因是为了更快更有效地处理案件，并让被告认罪，如果他们在第一次被通知且没有认罪，他们将失去量刑折扣。
还应该值得注意的是，一旦受害者报案了家庭暴力事件，警方便会接管此事，即使受害人想撤回指控，警方也不必同意。这样做是为了确保施虐方无法像以前那样恐吓受害者让其撤回指控。
澳大利亚对家庭暴力犯罪是非常严格的，并且对那些犯罪的人施以的惩罚更加严厉。此类行为也是很大的污点记录，无犯罪记录证明上的家庭暴力记录可能意味着你的澳大利亚签证被取消，即使您尚未被判有罪。
如果您有疑虑，请务必寻求律师的建议。许多被告都试图自己辩护，但实际上，这样做可能会给自己带来更多弊大于利。
