The term "FELONY SPOUSAL ASSAULT" is associated with which code?

273.5
245
330
288

The correct answer is: 273.5

The term "FELONY SPOUSAL ASSAULT" is specifically defined under California Penal Code 273.5. This code addresses the crime of inflicting corporal injury on a spouse or cohabitant, which is categorized as a felony when the injury is significant enough to warrant such a classification. The conditions described in this code focus on domestic violence scenarios, recognizing the seriousness of such acts and the legal consequences involved. Options associated with the other codes pertain to different offenses; for example, Penal Code 245 deals with assaults by means likely to produce great bodily injury, Penal Code 288 involves lewd and lascivious acts with minors, and Penal Code 330 relates to gambling offenses. Thus, these codes do not pertain to spousal assault, making the understanding of Penal Code 273.5 crucial for identifying and addressing felony spousal assault.
