You should admit what you did. It was wrong for you to lie, but you can still make things right. This man should not go to jail for somthing he did not do. And as for the kids you should go to court and get visitation privleges.

Assault is any unwanted touch to your body. If he shoved you, or threw something at you, that is assault. You need to talk to the policeman who took the report, because sometimes women don't realize what a legal assault is, and regret later charging someone. Be sure that you are clear about what exactly happened.
If you lied, you are in trouble, because your husband can then claim false arrest, defamation of character, slander, libel, etc. If you lied to the police because he had custody of your children and you only wanted to hurt him, you might even go to jail. I'm not a lawyer or a policeman, but I advise you to talk to someone who knows, the police first, then a lawyer if you need to.

Well I know you want your kids But don't lie about it just tell and say you just want custudy of your kids

Lying to the police is only going to make it harder to get your children back. If you loose your credibility, the Judge won't beleive anything you say. Talk to your lawyer first about what your best solution is.

Well if you tell that to the court you will be out on trial and you probably won't get a jail sentence for lying or lying under oath even though thats a crime in its self. So You either let the man get a sentence because you lied or talk with your lawyer about the circumstances and hope if you can get a new trial based on a new account that you lied and hope that you just get community service,
Hope this helped a little bit

Make sure u tell your lawyer that he did not commit assult. Otherwise u could end up in jail. Be honest, cry a little bit, don't lie anymore. Let your lawyer figure out what to do about the lying because that is something that could bring u down few notches. i really hope that you get your children back because my mother lost five children out of seven through divorse, and that was worse then when both her parents died. I am rooting for you though. Good Luck

Well that is a though one. The best thing to do is try to convice the court that he was abusing you and then use the reason that you wnated your children back to backup your story. well i hope you are successful.
