view moreBattery is the intentional touching of another without his or her consent. It is typically a misdemeanor, but can be charged as a felony if the person has a prior battery conviction, causes a significant injury, or uses a deadly weapon.
Assault requires that a person be placed in reasonable fear of imminent harm. It does not require any physical contact. Though assault is typically charged as a misdemeanor, it may become a felony under certain circumstances.
When faced with an accusation of assault or battery, law enforcement is typically required to make a decision based on the word of one person over another. The credibility of all parties involved can therefore be critical to the outcome of any case. If you, a friend, or loved one is under investigation or has been charged with assault, battery, or other violent crime contact the Law Office of John M. Phillips for a free consultation.
