San Diego Assault & Battery
Assault and Battery are two different offenses of common law.
An assault is - "any act by which a person intentionally or recklessly causes another person to apprehend immediate and unlawful ad personal violence."
And a battery is - "any act by which a person, intentionally or recklessly inflicts unlawful personal violence upon another person."
Therefore a typical example of an assault would include where a person rides or drives at another person or shakes a fist under their nose, or points a loaded gun or knife at someone. By contrast, a battery requires that there must be some contact between the person who inflicts the violence and the victim.
