What’s the Difference Between Simple and Aggravated Battery?
Although state laws vary on some of the details, simple battery is the act of engaging in unwanted physical contact while trying to injure them. Under most circumstances, simple battery is a misdemeanor. Aggravated battery, though, is when you intend to do severe bodily harm to the other party or if you attack someone especially vulnerable. If convicted of aggravated battery, you’ll likely face huge fines and significant prison time.
