Hi. I've just found this forum and was looking for some answers.
To but a VERY long story short, I split from my abusive partner 3 1/2 years ago and since then he has been aN UTTER ****. We have two children who's heads he has messed up and they have been traumatised by some of the things they have witnessed.
We're going through an access battle right now and he has not seen the children since October, which has turned their behaviour around dramatically for the better.
Anyway, i have just found out that he has been caught drink driving for the second time in a year or so. He has court on Monday. He was driving with no licence after having been banned before (may have been the previous drink driving charge but not sure).
My question is, what is the possibility of him going to prison? I have read he is likely to get a 3 year ban. Not sure about the fine as he has no job.
Obviously this is good for my children in the long run as he has probably shot all chances of having access to them (there are a lot of reasons why it's dangerous for them to have contact but I won't go into that) but for now, as it's nearly xmas, I wanted to know if he will go to prison.
TBH I hope he does, he has never learned from him mistakes and I don't want my children's xmas ruined by a visit from him, which it would be.
Thanks in advance!!
