103: Listen and Learn –- Assault and Battery - a podcast by Bar Exam Toolbox
from 2020-08-31T09:00
Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, we have another episode in our "Listen and Learn" series, where we review a substantive area of the law and apply the rules to fact patterns. This time, we're focusing on two topics from Torts -- specifically, assault and battery.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Unpacking the elements of assault and battery
- Are threatening words enough to be considered an assault?
- Some less obvious situations where harmful or offensive bodily contact can occur
- Coming up with scenarios to help you remember the rules
- Going through a fact pattern from the February 2016 California bar exam Torts essay
- How to analyze intentional tort questions
