All
assault charges are serious. The effect on your life
of being convicted of an assault charge can be devastating.
Although
potential jail and prison sentences can range from
90 days for a simple assault misdemeanor to a long
prison sentence for assault with intent to commit
murder, there are many other consequences which make
any assault a serious charge.
Judges routinely give heavy fines, costs, jail time
and probation for charges of assault. As with other
crimes, convictions of assault are often published
in local newspapers. Moreover, employers may be reluctant
to hire someone with an assault conviction. Felony
convictions, including assaultive crimes, often result
in the inability to be bonded. Being bonded is a requirement
of many jobs and might eliminate you as a potential
candidate for some jobs.
