Re: Assault Charges

It will be a Class A misdemeanor or a felony, depending upon your injuries. The punishment (if convicted) will also depend upon his past criminal record and his legal representation and his ability to convince the court and/or prosecutor of his ability to reform his behavior. Stay in touch with the prosecutor.
