Assault Attempt To Inflict Serious Injury
What do you mean by assault?
According to the California Penal Code 240 "An assault is an unlawful attempt, coupled with a present ability, to commit a violent injury on the person of another." Battery would be the act of inflicting injury, no matter how slight, which is why "Assault and Battery" often go together, but are techinically they are separate crimes.

Simple assault would be an unlawful, but generally a less serious, attempt to injure another person e.g. shoving, throwing objects, punching etc. Aggravated assault usually involves an intent to cause serious bodily injury or death, often indicated by use of a weapon, or a great deal of force.
