What is the name of your state?New York. I currently have a temporary order of protection that was issued by family court against my husband and there are charges pending with the police department. My attorney has filed a judgment for divorce based on inhumane treatment and cruelty. We have began the starting of the settlement and he wants the judgement of divorce changed to abandoment. My question is if I agree to change the judgement will the charges and the order of protection be affected?
