 When
an individual is convicted of an assault or
battery criminal charge, they may not only be
awarded various fines or penalties, but potentially
be left with a permanent mark on their criminal
record which may present obstacles such as finding
employment, or renting an apartment / home. In the
event of a felony conviction, you may loose some of
your basic rights as an American citizen, such as
your right to vote, obtain or possess a passport, or
your right to vote, just to name a few.
An assault occurs when an action or a threat
places someone in imminent fear of a non-consensual
touching. Assault does not involve physical
contact. Defense of assault charges sometimes
include self-defense, defense of others, and defense
of property.
Battery
can be defined as an intentional act of harmful or
offensive touching of someone without permission. Accidental contact, no matter how
severe, is not considered battery. To be charged
with battery, the person who was physically harmed
does not have to require medical treatment.

There are
also varying degrees of assault and battery crimes based
on the circumstances and the severity of injuries which
are caused. For example, weapons can elevate the
severity of the offense.
When law enforcement investigates allegations of assault
and battery, many times the eyewitnesses may not have
seen the event in question start, and report what they
observed, and who they perceived as the aggressor. Since
law enforcement are initially focused on restoring
order, due attention to fully investigate the assault
and battery incident sometimes is lacking, and simply
arrest whomever they believe was involved or
responsible. This often leads to individuals who was
defending their self or protecting another being
arrested on charges of assault and battery.
Depending upon
the circumstances of your arrest and possibly your prior
criminal history, an assault and battery conviction
may result in:
Suspension of your driving privileges;
Attend mandatory anger management classes;

vehicle forfeiture;
