California Penal Code Section 240 - Assault

Assault can also be aggravated assault, an assault carried out with a dangerous or deadly weapon and/or one that reflects the intent to inflict serious bodily injury on the victim.

Crimes that can constitute assault are:

• Assault with intent to cause serious bodily harm
• Assault with a deadly weapon
• Intent to commit battery
• In some cases, making threats to cause bodily harm

In addition to the above, additional penalties may be possible if the assault took place in certain locations or was committed against a defined class of people. An assault that occurs at a school, for example, could result in a $2,000 fine and/or one year in jail.
