example, I am from Baltimore, sometimes when people get

side of courtroom understand, will factor that in, do you
understand that it doesn’t matter, the level of injury in
this case? You will hear that there is injury. But does

MR. TYSON:

What about this side of the
|
courtroom, does the level of injury matter to anybody
over here?

MS. X:

Could you repeat that again?

MS. TYSON:

The charge of battery is
|
intentional touching. Regardless. if you are injured.
Mr. X, if I was in anger to push you, just push
you back, and there is no injury there, would you agree?
If I am to come up to you in anger right now and push
you, everybody saw that. But you are not really injured,
would you agree that I have committed a battery?
MR. DENIS DE VLAMING: Objection, Judge,

situation.
