Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

If the state can prove that someone hit a cop car with another car on purpose, or in an attempt to flee, they could be charged with aggravated assault. If the car was hit during a routing traffic accident, it would not be a felony, and would only entail a misdemeanor charge if the accident was caused by a moving violation. If you are talking about hitting a car with your fist, that could be seen as any number of misdemeanors, but I can't really see a felony charge from that. Hitting the cop themselves would be misdemeanor obstruction.

With your fists, probably NOT. With another vehicle, YES. See website for info on retaining the right attorney: http://www.lawrencelewispc.com/pages.php?go=pinfo&PID=38

The punishment depends on the prior record, and any injury to the police officer.
