A defense attorney in a domestic violence case said his client has recently expressed interest in a plea deal that would resolve multiple open cases.
The defendant is charged with felony contempt and threat to injure or kidnap a person.
He also has four open misdemeanor cases, three of which are domestic violence matters.
During the Feb. 9 hearing, defense attorney Anthony Viviani said he believes all five cases are jury demandable, but hopes the cases can be resolved with a plea.
DC Superior Court Judge Juliet McKenna continued the Feb. 9 status hearing to May 4 pending a determination as to whether the case will go to trial or be resolved with a plea.
