If someone beat you, it is a battery, and you could recover in a civil lawsuit.
Added: First, however, you would have to report the offense to the police - who would investigate and have them charged and (hopefully) convicted in criminal court.

can you sue someone over 18 for assaulting a minor
if the person is purposely hurting you then yes if there just annoying you then no.
Laws cannot protect someone from being falsely accused. After an accusation has been made, you may be able to sue someone for defamation of character.
No, you cannot sue someone for anything. In order to file a lawsuit, there must be a legal basis or cause of action, such as a violation of a law or a breach of contract. Simply being unhappy with someone or wanting to retaliate is not sufficient grounds for a lawsuit.
if they are dumb enough to tell you their real name sue sue sue sue sue sue
Sure, you can sue someone for just about anything. The question is, should you sue them? Were you injured? Was it an accident or was it malicious? If you feel you need to sue then contact a lawyer.
what is the minimum amount you can sue someone at a federal level
If you have a loss worth suing someone for you would not have to try to figure out what to sue for. This is ridiculous. If the other party who hit you has insurance they will take care of your damages and that's it.
No you can't sue for being sucker punched.
