What is the name of your state?ALABAMA
My brother (16yo) was at a birthday party for a friend (parents were present) and his ex-girlfriend(when they were 12) was there with her new boyfriend(20YO. She told him that my brother still liked her so this enraged her boyfriend and he came up behind my brother and hit him in the face. The punch knocked him to the gound and he hit the back of his head on the cement. He was knocked out for 5mins. The parents did nothing. My brother's friend drove him home then we took him to the hospital. He had a concussion. My father signed a warrant for the 20yo. There is a court date scheduled. What can we expect?? What should we be prepared for? Shouldn't the parents where the party was held be liable for something???
