In many Battery Domestic Violence cases, after an event occurs between partners leading to a charge, the partners do not end their domestic relationship. This leads many partners to discuss what happened on the day in question. These discussions can lead to one partner to tell another that the situation was different than the way they perceived it, and it can come to the point of asking a partner to portray the situation differently if they were to testify at trial. These are dangerous discussions. Pursuant to Nevada law, "Every person who, without giving, offering or promising a bribe, shall incite or attempt to procure another to commit perjury, or to offer any false evidence, or to withhold true testimony, though no perjury be committed or false evidence offered or true testimony withheld, shall be guilty of a gross misdemeanor." NRS 199.150.
No one wants to make a bad situation worse, so partners need to be careful what they discuss after an event of Domestic Violence. There are always two sides to every story. No one perceives any one situation the same, especially one that is severely emotionally charged like the events leading to a Domestic Violence charge.
