What is Considered Domestic Violence in California?



In California, domestic violence is defined as any emotional, physical, sexual, or financial abuse done against a family member or household member. While obvious cases of violence include assault, battery, and stalking, other acts such as posting negative comments online or withholding the right to finances are also considered domestic violence.



The law also casts a wide net in defining individuals who may be family or household members:



·        Spouse


·        Ex-spouse


·        Relative by blood or marriage


·        Individuals currently or formerly living together as a family


·        Biological parents of a child
