Battery is a criminal offense which involves unlawful physical contact. Based on the United States legal system, criminal battery, or simply battery, is the use of force against another individual which directly results in offensive or harmful contact.
At common law, battery is the tort of intentionally (or, in Australia, negligently) and voluntarily bringing about an unconsented harmful or offensive contact with a person or to something closely associated with them (e.g. a hat, a purse).Unlike assault, battery involves an actual contact.hus, a hypersensitive person would fail on a battery action if jostled by fellow passengers on a subway, as this contact is expected in normal society and a reasonable person would not find it offensive. Harmful is defined by any physical damage to the body. Battery need not require body-to-body contact.
