What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
California
I am bipolar. My wife and i got into an argument and i punched her in the face so i was arrested for felony. 2 days prior to the incident, i was sent to hospital for manic episode. But they sent me home only after 6 hours. I was still not okay but the hospital people did not believe me. It seems they were trying to get rid of people with mental illness because they reached the limit of the hospital bed. I was still not well when i punched my wife. She said something i did not like so i punched her but i did not realize what i did until after i did it. I called 911 to ask for help after hitting her. But police saw probable cause so they arrested me. I cooperated with the law enforcement. 2 days after being arrested, I was able to bail out. I called the district attorney and they said i have no court date yet. What is the likelihood that they will drop the case against me?
