Also known as sexual battery, sexual assault occurs when an offender forces a victim to perform an unwanted and offensive sexual act. This includes anything from simple groping to rape. In many sexual assault cases, the charge is based on the statement and testimony of the victim, increasing the difficulty of bringing a defense against allegations. Sexual assault cases can be very difficult to comprehend and you need a knowledgeable Ventura criminal defense lawyer by your side to defend your rights and help you to understand your legal choices.

Misdemeanor or Felony Penalties

A misdemeanor is covered under California Penal Code §234.4 (e)(1) and involves any intentional and unconsented to touching of intimate parts of an individual.

A felony is charged under California Penal Code §243.4 and is punishable by up to four years in prison, $10,000 in fines and probations.
