Sexual Assault in California
Throughout the United States, many terms describe sexual crimes in an official capacity, such as assault. In California, people typically refer to sexual assault or abuse as sexual battery. This crime involves intimate touching against the victim's will — and for purposes of sexual gratification. Moreover, the state can classify this crime as a misdemeanor or felony, depending on the involvement of bare skin.
Battery is just one of several sex crimes under the California Penal Code. Other sex crimes include lewd conduct, lewd acts with a child, rape, and statutory rape. Correct categorization is key, not only during the criminal justice process but also as victims proceed with civil cases.
Sexual Assault as an Intentional Tort
Sexual battery may be a serious crime under California law, but that certainly doesn't mean that all perpetrators receive the appropriate consequences. Thankfully, it is possible for victims to deliver additional accountability by taking legal action. By initiating a civil case, those impacted by assault can send a strong message and potentially recover damages. While these damages are often punitive in nature, they may also cover the emotional duress from the assault. They may also cover loss of wages if trauma has left the victim struggling to work.
