Under California's Domestic Violence laws, the state prosecutor has the authority to prosecute the matter to the fullest extent of the law, even if the alleged victim wants to dimiss the charges against the accused.
What is Domestic Violence?
To be charged with a domestic violence crime, there must be a "domestic relationship" between the defendant and the alleged victim.
The alleged victim of a domestic violence dispute may be a spouse, or former spouse, someone you are dating or formely dated, a roommate or former roommate, the parent of your child or a family member including parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and first cousins.
Felony or Misdemeanor?
Domestic violence may be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony depending on the circumstances of the alleged crime. The severity of the sentence depends on whether the district attorney charges you with a felony or misdemeanor offense.

Don't delay in seeking expungement/or sealing of a criminal record. Once the relief has been granted by the court, you may legally respond "no" to an inquiry concerning criminal convictions in many circumstances, however, it may take the State of California up to one year to officially expunge or seal your record from their databases.
