Assault Laws in Dallas

In Dallas, assault occurs when an individual intentionally does something that causes another individual to fear they will be harmed. It does not matter if contact is actually made with the alleged victim. Under Texas Penal Code § 22.01(2), a person can be charged with assault for making a threat without causing physical contact or harm to the person. However, if physical contact is made and injuries are sustained, the charge and consequences may more severe.

The classification and punishment for the assault will depend on the severity of the injuries sustained. An assault that causes a minor injury to an individual is a Class A misdemeanor and may be punished with a fine no greater than $4,000 and up to one year in jail.

An assault that consists of a threat and no physical harm is considered a Class C misdemeanor. This is punishable by a fine of no more than $500. However, more serious assault offenses are categorized as third-degree felonies. This includes the following:

Third-degree felonies, according to Section 12.34, are punishable by between two to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
