What Is Assault? In criminal law, assault is usually listed alongside battery. Many people are familiar with the term âassault and battery,â and battery is often confused with assault. However, assault is a separate charge from battery. It is generally defined as an attempted battery.
In some jurisdictions assault is defined as the threat of bodily harm that reasonably causes fear of harm in the victim while battery is the actual physical impact on another person. If the victim has not actually been touched, but only threatened (or someone attempted to touch them), then the crime is assault.
