In the State of Florida, assault is a crime that is often confused with criminal battery. Assault is an intentional, unlawful threat by word or act to do violence to the person of another, coupled with an apparent ability to do so, and doing some act which creates a well-founded fear in such other person that such violence is imminent.

Although assault does not typically involve personal contact or a physical act to occur, many individuals are charges with Simple Assault because the subjective nature of the incident from the alleged victim's perspective is at the root of criminal assault.

The other element of assault that must be proved for a conviction of simple assault is that must prove that the accused had intent to commit the assault. Often times an alleged claim of assault arises after a disagreement or argument between two or more individuals.
