Assault, Recodified

Posted By Christine McGuire on Sep 3, 2011 1:05pm PDT

Assault Recodified

New Laws for 2012!!

What it is all about:


This change in the law amends Penal Code Section 245

Penal Code Section 245 used to include both assault likely to produce great bodily injury, and assult with a deadly weapon in that one subdivision.

Now Penal Code section 245 only includes assult with a deadly weapon where the asssult likley to prodcue great bodily injury is now in PC 245, new subdivision (a) (4).

What this means for you: NOTHING!!

This amendment actually creates no substantive change instead it just moves the law around a little.

If you are arrested or charged with a crime, contact:
