Ohio is different... some cities if you don't show up for a domestic violence case after 3 attempts to get in contact with the victim and 3 appearances in court for the defendant, the case will be dropped. That is unfortunately the way it works in Toledo court. But in smaller outside cities surrounding Toledo (Maumee, Sylvania...etc) if the.victim does not appear they do get a warrant out for their arrest. I know all this because I myself was a victim of domestic violence for 7 years. I finally moved out of state to get out of that situation. As far as Oregon court goes, I am pretty sure it will not just get dismissed. She will tell that she wants charges dropped, state will more than likely pick up and he will take a plea bargain. Just my thought
