Specialist Domestic Violence Court to Launch in Nottingham

The court will be responsible for charging, bailing, sentencing and dealing with pleas.  It will not deal with trials.  An Independent Domestic Violence Advisor/ advocate pilot will run alongside supporting high risk survivors through the court process, Domestic Abuse Support Unit Police Officers will also offer support to the court.  Victim Support will offer their existing service and support the Independent domestic violence advocate.
