Filling The Gap Of Domestic Violence Protection: Returning Human Rights To U.S. Victims, Melanie Kalmanson Jan 2016

Filling The Gap Of Domestic Violence Protection: Returning Human Rights To U.S. Victims, Melanie Kalmanson

Florida State University Law Review

The prevalence of domestic violence in the United States indicates a need for increased governmental protection.
