Assault and battery are distinct crimes, each carrying serious legal consequences. ASSAULT CRIMES: Assault involves an intentional threat to harm another person, causing the victim to reasonably fear imminent violence. Essential elements of an assault crime include the victim's belief that the threat is real, immediate, and that the person making the threat has the ability to carry it out. Simple assault in Florida does not involve a deadly weapon, whereas aggravated assault does.
BATTERY CRIMES: Battery involves intentionally striking or touching someone against their will. The key element in battery offenses is "intent." Without intent, accidental touching or causing harm is not considered criminal battery. Simple battery does not involve a deadly weapon, while aggravated battery does.
For the prosecution to secure a conviction in assault or battery cases, they must prove intent, which can be subjective and challenging. If you’ve been accused, arrested, and charged with an assault or battery crime in Orlando or Central Florida, it’s crucial to protect your rights.
