What This Covers
Assault on a female is a distinct charge in North Carolina rather than a description of an assault. It applies where the person charged is male and over eighteen and the person alleged to have been assaulted is female.
The elements concern an overt act or attempt, force or threats, and actual contact, and what is alleged under each is where these cases are contested.
The charge frequently arises from domestic situations, which brings collateral consequences beyond the criminal case itself.
