A Battery Charge With DUI In Savannah GA

Battery is an intentional unpermitted act causing harmful or offensive contact with another person. Generally, battery is divided into the following subtypes:

• Simple battery: any nonconsensual, insulting, or hurtful contact
• Sexual battery: battery in the context of a sexual situation
• Domestic violence battery: battery that occurs in the home between partners
• Aggravated battery: an offense that results in serious bodily harm
A battery charge reflects the severity of the damage caused by the act.

As a tort, a battery is a harmful or offensive touching of one person by another. If you touch someone or you come in contact with some part of another person without the other person agreeing to it, you may be committing battery. The law does not require any harm or damage. The person committing the battery may have meant no hatred or ill will.

The gravity of a battery accusation may vary; sometimes the corporal damage can be minimal, even insignificant, nevertheless when it is produced in a severe manner it is determined as a grave battery injury. To determine if somebody is guilty of a battery crime it is required to demonstrate the purpose of the attacker; sometimes the person who commits this crime can be absolved of the charges if he/she presents evidences of suffering an unbalanced mental condition.
