Definition of Assault and Battery. Noun. An unlawful physical attack, or threat of violence, on an individual, with or without actual injury. A crime in which there is actual touching or violence along with the intent to cause a person harm and/or fear.
Generally speaking, assault occurs when someone threatens bodily harm to another in a convincing way. Assault often is followed by battery, which is defined as unlawful physical conduct (often an act of violence, but also unwelcome sexual contact). Not all threats are considered assault. the act indeed caused apprehension in the victim that harmful or offensive contact would occur.
