Judge Cancels Defendant’s Bench Warrant

DC Superior Court Judge Maribeth Raffinan canceled a bench warrant for a defendant who voluntarily returned to court on July 22.

The defendant is charged with simple assault and attempted threats to do bodily harm in a domestic violence case.

He was released on Feb. 11 on his promise to return to court. However, he did not appear for his Feb. 25 hearing, and a bench warrant was issued the next day. 

The defendant was reminded that he must check in with the Pretrial Services Agency (PSA) as a condition of his release. 

His next hearing is scheduled for Aug. 3.
