For so many American Chinese, it is normal to see the couple quarrel with each other. The Chinese caps usually come to reconcile and comfort while the American caps will take them to the police office. The lawyer named Deng hong remind the American Chinese to act according to the local regulation. In America, it is domestic violence rather than simple quarreling.

 

According to the lawyer, many domestic affairs are actually domestic violence in  view of Americans. A large number of Chinese are unconsciously imprisoned and fined for such oversight.

 

Domestic violence is not limited to the behavior between couples but also spouse, lovers and cohabitants. California criminal law has made such rule that when domestic violence is confirmed, the accused can be sentenced for one to three years imprisonment according to the order of severity.
