Assault is serious in Florida. Depending on injury, victim age, and weapon used, it can be a felony. There are two types – simple and aggravated assault. The attorneys at Call Connor Law can help defend against both.
Under Florida law, simple assault is a misdemeanor. It requires:
- An intentional, unlawful threat of violence by word or action
- Appearing capable of carrying out the threat
- The victim fearing imminent violence
No physical violence is needed. Threatening violence or swinging a fist but missing is assault if the victim feared harm. Punishable by up to 60 days jail and a $500 fine.
Aggravated assault adds:
- Use of a deadly weapon
- Intent to commit another felony
Anything potentially causing serious injury is a deadly weapon – a chair, rock, bottle, etc. It’s a felony with up to 5 years prison and a $5,000 fine.
