- | {{Template}} | + | {{Template}}'''"Assault and battery'''" is the combination of two [[violence|violent]] [[crime]]s: [[assault]] (the [[threat]] of violence) and [[battery (crime)|battery]] (physical violence). This [[law|legal]] distinction exists only in [[jurisdiction]]s that distinguish assault as ''threatened'' violence rather than ''actual'' violence. |
