In the area of criminal law the term "assault & battery" typically refers to one offense. This is different from tort law which makes assault one offense, and battery another. San Diego assault and battery charges may be the result of a defendant being accused of any and all of the following:
- Physical hitting, punching, poking, etc.
- Threats of bodily harm, causing fear to another
- Causing serious injuries to another by physical force
- Causing injuries by the use of a weapon
Criminal charges involving assault & battery can result in severe consequences. If you have been charged with a crime of this manner you should call San Diego assault & battery defense attorney Erik Friis for advice about the best approach to protecting your rights.

| San Diego - Convicted Sex Offender is Charged with Murder |
| Posted By San Diego Criminal Defense Lawyer |
|
On Tuesday March 9, 2010 a judge issued a gag order which delayed the process of a hearing in the a case against 30 year-old John Albert Gardner III. Apparently the prosecution had hoped for a trial by July, but the defense is pushing for one in September. The defendant is a convicted sex offender and is being charged with the disappearance and
murder of 17-year old Chelsea King. Chelsea's body was found in a park just north of San Diego, CA.
Gardner is also under investigation for his possible connection with the murder of another teen girl, 14-year old Amber Dubois. Amber's remains were recently found just ten miles from the site where Chelsea's body was found. The young girl went missing last year near her high school. Gardner has pleaded not guilty to this accusation as well as the charges against him for the other counts of attempted
rape and murder.
If you have been charged with murder, rape, or any other crime in San Diego or the surrounding areas you should hire a defense lawyer who has experience representing individuals who have been charged for multiple crimes.

| Expungement Services in San Diego |
| Posted By San Diego Criminal Defense Attorney |

Convictions for any crime are detrimental to your future. Sometimes having a particular crime on your record can prevent you from living certain places, operating a vehicle, or working a certain job. The effects of a first time criminal conviction on your future can be serious, but they do not have to be permanent.
You might consider a criminal expungement. This is different from the a pardon or the process of
appeals and can offer some relief from negative background checks if granted. The legal system offers an expungement proceeding which allows first time offenders to file a lawsuit seeking the "erasing" of the records containing the information of their prior conviction. This process can be confusing and requires the experience and service of a knowledgeable
San Diego expungement lawyer.
Don't let a first time conviction keep you from the future opportunities you deserve! If you have a conviction on your record that you would like to have expunged you should contact a
San Diego criminal defense attorney from the Superior Law Center today.
