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.
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.
No you can't sue for being sucker punched.
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.
umm.. no one prisoners are being beaten because they did soemthing bad.l0l
I think you can sue someone if they break the law in their country.
yes especially if it still shows on your record
