Would You Consider PC 243(c)(2) / Battery On A Peace Officer With Injury A "Strike" Under California's Three Strike Law?

Posted in Assault FAQ'S on February 9, 2015

It depends. Penal Code 243(c)(2) / Battery on a Peace Officer with Injury is NOT by itself a “Strike” under California’s Three Strikes Law.

However, if the injury inflicted is serious enough and determined to be “great bodily injury” then it would be considered a “Strike” under California’s Three Strikes Law.

Whether or not an injury is “great bodily injury” depends heavily on the facts of your particular case.
