In other words, one can assault a person without committing a battery. Likewise, a person can commit a battery without assaulting that person. For example, if Bob stabs you from behind without you witnessing the attack, then Bob is committing a battery without an assault.
Any type of touching that the victim considers harmful or offensive can be sufficient. For example, if a woman pours a mug of hot water on someone else, this could be a battery. To go even further, a classic case of a battery that does not result in pain or injury is when the perpetrator spits on the victim.
It is important to note that in most jurisdictions, words, without an act, cannot constitute an assault. For example, no assault has occurred where a person waves his arms at another and shouts, ?I'm going to shoot you!? where no gun is visible or apparent.
Some common types of battery include: Pushing someone. Hitting or kicking someone. Attacking someone with a weapon.
The main difference between a battery charge and an assault charge is the actual presence of harm and the threat of harm. Someone can only be charged with battery if they have caused real physical harm to someone, while a person can be charged with assault if the mere threat of harm is present.
