FAQ
Simple assault is usually the least severe assault crime, and it is generally charged as misdemeanor assault. Further, the laws of some jurisdictions set forth different degrees of simple assault.
The lowest degree of assault is simple assault or assault in the fifth degree and is considered a misdemeanor. Assault in the fourth degree is a wobbler offense that can be charged as a misdemeanor or felony. Third, second, and first-degree assault are all felony offenses.
However, Minnesota Statutes 609.03, 609.2242, and 609.2247 cover the penalties for domestic assault. At the misdemeanor level, it is punishable by up to 90 days in jail with a possible fine of $1,000. Importantly, when there is strangulation involved, the sentence is three years in prison and $5,000 in fines.
Level 2: Assault causing bodily harm/Assault with a weapon. Level 3: Aggravated assault (wounding, scarring, maiming, disfiguring, or endangering the life of the victim)
