Assault is the threat or attempt
to strike another person. You can still be charged
with assault even if you did not successfully strike
the other person as long as they were aware that
you intended to strike them. Of course, the accused
must be capable of the assault in the first place.
Assault does not require the physical touching of
the victim.
Aggravated assault is an attack while
committing another crime. An example of an aggravated
assault would be beating a person while robbing them.
Committing a violent crime such as assault and aggravated
assault allows for criminal charges as well as a civil
wrong lawsuit.
Assault in Oklahoma City has consequences of up to
six months in jail and up to a thousand dollar fine.
If you have been charged with assault or aggravated
assault, contact the Oklahoma
City criminal defense attorneys at Atkins and Markoff
